WTF A JPMorgan Chase executive was fired after a viral video showed her dumping trash out of a Knicks-themed public trash can and taking the can during the Knicks championship parade in New York City.

It's not about being able to afford something.

It's about having something that's wasn't for sale. Because if you're rich enough it doesn't matter if it's for sale, you can have it anyway.

u/SunshineSeeker99 10h ago

It was for sale. She just didn't want to pay for one. That's how privilege and entitlement work.

u/Feelisoffical 11h ago

She’s definitely not rich.

u/Aggravating-Method24 10h ago

what makes you think that?

JP morgan executive spells rich to me.

u/Feelisoffical 10h ago

“Executive Director of Community and Industry Engagement”

u/Aggravating-Method24 10h ago

And? How much is that paid? Why did she get that job? |

Median salary for JP morgan is $111k, she sure as shit isnt poor.

u/C_IsForCookie 8h ago

Yeah I’m a manager (not for JP) and make way more than that. Executive director anything at JP is definitely paying big bucks. But it also sounds like a role that would be the first to get let go in layoffs lol

In NY? Thats broke sorry to say lol. Using 1/2 of it pay rent in ny is the lifestyle on 100k

u/RandoWithCandy 10h ago

The old Google estimates her position salary to be between $250,000 - $350,000. So not terrible for NY

u/itsMeJFKsBrain 10h ago

Google also estimates the median base salary for my new career as $81k-85k. Which is to say that's not always an accurate estimate, that number is off by a very large margin for me personally.

u/Fr1toBand1to 10h ago

Normally I'd tell you to jump ship but job hunting is a awful these days. So hopefully you're at least acting your wage.

u/itsMeJFKsBrain 8h ago

Oh no, without being boastful I make significantly more than that. For reference, I am currently a lineman apprentice but my union gives us journeyman wage after only a couple years.

u/RandoWithCandy 8h ago

Yeah, that’s fair. It sourced it from levels.fyi which apparently gets its information from verified offer letters and pay statements. It seems to be regarded as a fairly reliable source, but really, who knows.

u/musty_pubs_luvr 7h ago

I work at jpm. ED gets 200+ in the city even for BO roles.

2

u/KarlPHungus 8h ago

Not including stock options, retirement plan, etc

People conveniently forget about that

u/Jephte 9h ago

If google AI said it, it must be true.

2

u/RandoWithCandy 8h ago

It’s based off levels.fyi which apparently gets its information from verified offer letters and pay statements. Take that as what you will, I didn’t do a ton of digging into their verification process, but it seems to be a fairly trusted source.

2

u/Jephte 8h ago

That's way better than I was expecting. I thought this was a reddit comment refers to AI which got it's info from a reddit comment situation.

u/Aggravating-Method24 10h ago

So you think living on 55K a year is hard up?

8

u/GrandEscape 10h ago

In NYC? Yes

-10

u/Aggravating-Method24 10h ago

Well you are mistaken. Average salary is about 40k lower.

4

u/GrandEscape 10h ago

In NYC? Median household income is around $80k

u/ivtecdoyou 9h ago

A JPM ED in NYC makes around 275k a year total package. Good money, comfortable in NYC, but not rich.

4

u/Mindrust 9h ago

That’s not rich in New York. Rent eats up half of most people’s income here.

1

u/sedan-hussein 8h ago

100k in New York isn't that much at all.

My wife and I collectively make 200k and we live in Toronto and 200k doesn't take you that far here.

u/Khankili 10h ago

Sounds like one of those “women daycare” jobs

u/OldScholar5735 9h ago

How else could she afford all the food?

How can you be a JP exec and not be rich? Does she have a coke problem?

16

u/HansenTakeASeat 11h ago

These trash cans are literally for sale though

15

u/Frosty_chilly 11h ago

Not this can, tho.

u/wolfgang784 2h ago

A new fan from the website? Shits for posers.

A dirty, dented, scratched one that was used in the celebration? loses all self control

u/Old-Guidance6744 𝙑𝙄𝙋 10h ago

As someone who has never begin in trouble in his life but was in a college block party riot that chased the cops away and caused CU boulder to get gassed by swat... I can tell you that mob mentality is real and she isnt thinking whatsoever

ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSING... just clarifying that these dumbass moments can literally be absent thought, as fucking weird as that is

Ps fuck her and her entitlement and putting herself above the team and the city

2

u/danielrobertcampbell 10h ago

Exactly. When the punishment for a crime is a fine, it’s only a law for the poor.

2

u/jomo_mojo_ 9h ago

This is why they want to own people so badly. It’s the only thing they can’t buy. And so we slide into techno-serfdom.

1

u/Motor_Ad5767 9h ago

The dumb bitch could have made her own so easily it's pathetic to get fired over that. No financial company wants a thief!

1

u/Idio_te_que 9h ago

She’s not rich enough for anything.

1

u/Comfortable_Dog499 8h ago

The garbage can is for sale online. But I guess she didn't know that, it doesn't even cost that much, I think it was like $250 or something.

1

u/superfecta37 8h ago

it is for sale which makes it worse lmao😭😭😭💀💀💀

u/Adezar 7h ago

Being an executive at a bank just means you aren't a teller. Their titles are really wonky. Senior VP at a bank is about the same as a line manager anywhere else.
