I resigned once from a British Airways tech job just after graduating and the biznatch Human Resources got nasty with me and said "no you cannot collect your personal items from the office, we will ship them to you". I informed them that was my private property and that they were withholding it and I needed it and could not wait for shipping. After much arguing I managed to get a manager to watch me pack and I walked out with it all. Absolute cvnts from start to finish, the subsidiary company closed 6 months after I left, it was British Airways and some IT tech company subsidiuary joint venture company, a load of crap.

That is the most childish and close minded assumption. Second, your point on education makes no sense for two reasons: 1) I said that people in these institutions work hard (80-100 hours a week) and it has nothing to do with your statement that it’s “harder for lower class to get to these kind of jobs” - these jobs require hard work regardless of what class you are or where you came from; and in no way did I imply that people in these institutions work harder than anyone else. 2) you’re simply wrong about the education attainment opportunity - it’s EXACTLY the opposite. Do you know that if you’re family makes less a certain dollar threshold a year (e.g., $60K), you can get scholarships or a completely free ride to certain universities? Moving up the ladder is never easy, not easy for anyone - but the opportunities are certainly there

there's no savings. the cost of living is so high and the wages/salaries are so low you're fighting every day just to have a safe place to sleep at night, some running water to bathe, and something edible. books/investment tips online are either unhelpful because it takes money to make money, are outdated because of volatile markets, or are just disguised advertisements to get you to drop your wealth into something that will make someone else rich further down the line. jobs are just as squishy and unreliable as you described; make a mistake, or the company hits a rough patch, and you recieve a pay cut or are back on the streets altogether. there's no point in trying to become financially stable anymore unless you're incredibly smart and are able to skill-build (many people are not.) it's nearly impossible to get ahead since the system is rigged to keep the rich people in power. it's better to invest time in learning how to be happy with what little you do have in life than to try and acquire more. life's temporary anyway so why bother trying to stockpile when you lose it all at the end? unless you have a wife/husband and kids to worry about don't sweat it. and nobody wants to date a dirt-poor anyhow because there's no security in that so you end up dying single either way. better to go out with a smile than in tears.

I never worked for Lehmans but in their I.T. department there was a Scottish guy and a Scottish gal (Mary ?) who were very nasty that interviewed me in the early 2000s with C++ for IT. Also I had a mate there who was there during the crash though and he was in I.T. but he looked after the systems in IT security months after the crash as many of the financial instruments hadn't expired and had not been sold on yet. Who was he tall HR guy there who was quite spotty and boring that must have got caught by the crash there ?

I was working in Canary Wharf for one of the big banks at that time. That morning I stood down by the Reuters Screen and I could see staff lined up with their backs against the windows in the Lehman building , obviously in meeting rooms being told they were all toast. By 11 am the Slug & Lettuce bar nearby was hopping with people drinking like it was the end of the world. Surreal day

No, no, no. This is a stark example of the misreporting of the Lehman crisis at that time. These scenes were filmed on Monday 15th September 2008 outside the Lehman Brothers building in Canary Wharf, London . At that point, none of the full time Lehman staff had been "let go." Contractors had been pulled out by their agencies, and some contingent workers had likewise departed; but full time staff were not, on that day, affected. What happened was that many of them walked because they had been given incorrect information by their line management or had simply made wrong assumptions. The fact is that Lehman management had no authority to terminate staff from the moment the company was placed in administration at 7.55am that day. The decision was in the hands of the administrators, and they did not terminate any staff until the end of that month, when 840 people were made redundant. A further 373 followed at the end of October. That compares with a total of 5,802 on the payroll in September 2008. What this video doesn't show is the majority of the individuals in these scenes returning to work 2 days later, after they had received phone calls from their team managers. Around half of them transferred to the Japanese bank Nomura after the sale of the Equities and Investment Banking divisions in October 2008; some Fixed Income specialists were headhunted by other firms, notably Barclays; the rest would stay with the Administration for another 5 years to wind down the firm and repay creditors.

Well it's an international city so highly likely. But Lehman went belly up in the states so Yes, a lot of Americans were let go elsewhere.

Wow, a lot of foreigners

25 years ago I was making $3-$5k a week working for a guy that made $15-$20k week…. Flying back and forth, Vegas strip once a month, eating out at least twice a day. Got into argument with boss one day and was fired. Couldn’t get a job at Papa Johns. Lost possessions one by one. Then slowly built it back up. I was young these guys are in their 40’s.

"I heard that McDonalds is hiring"

Been there

Why does this compilation exist? Were people really just clamoring to see these awkward shots of people moving their supplies after they’ve been fired?

it was a national crisis so people were trying to document and get footage of anything related to it this is just the banks' unemployed; millions of people lost their jobs, and their *life savings* because the companies they worked for were banking with lehman brothers and went bankrupt. people who were 40 and 50 years old, relatively financially stable, and had been saving up for retirement through many of these banks that were considered "safe" lost everything, and were now dealing with final notices from evictors demanding rents or payments and scrambling for part time work at fast food restaurants. it was catastrophic and really sad. the people who profited from this disaster were never held accountable for their crimes and got off scott-free

Why they hiring when going bankrupt

Serves you all right

Coz these employees were responsible not all of them but they those who were involved are responsible

What's sad is we the tax payers pay for this mess.

Who keeps a box's worth of personal crap at work?

I don’t know why they all left. My dad still works there.
