I don't mean to sound flippant ez, but if the sender of the e-mail is your supervisor, I'd dust off my resume if I were you.

From what I'm hearing and reading about BAC, this might not be a bad thing.  Call a few of the local wires and indys and see what's up.

O.k. here it goes. I guess I come from a pretty priviledged background, in that I have no debts including my home thanks to my parents. I don't think my managers knows much about my background.

What does this have to do with anything??  If you're saying "you don't need the money" then fine...quit if you want.  I didn't exactly grow up a pauper myself, but I find the actual work and the competition among FC's (both in my bank and friends at other firms) to be what keeps me going.

I get an email to attend a stupid bank function that I decline, and don't care to attend. I'm already turned off to the BAC's bs. He says to call him if I cannot attend, I say I'm not calling or atttending, if I don't want to go I won't go. I work for myself, not you. What do I do?

Why wouldn't you call?  That's just polite.  Sounds like he simply asked for an RSVP, and it wasn't required.

You sound like you have a little bit of a chip on your shoulder with BAC...true or no?

no I already declined. it sounds to me as if he’s pushing a little power play on me, of which based on my circumstances he’s picking on the wrong person, as I don’t give a sh!t.

Forget about Private Banking!!!!!

I think you’re confused. You do work for someone.

Courtesy is just never out of place.

To whom much is given, much is expected.

Yikes, this is a service/sales job.  I just laugh all the way to the bank.
