Then grow up and develop a thick skin. You'll need it if you are to survive in the real world.

The poster wasn't being rude or aggressive and asked a perfectly normal question.

If you wanted better info, should ask better questions...the answer you get will depend if you're only got a few years experience v 20 years and all that guff.

Perhaps you could ask your question on Expat woman. They are all terribly nice in there and you may even get an invite to one of their cake baking and tea nights.

Quants are highly paid computer programmers who sit in the basement of investments banks. They busy themselves by making (mostly wrong) computer models for automated trading and risk analysis. Mostly a male dominated industry where lunchtimes are spent studying the female reproductive organs in medical textbooks.

OP>>> 200k is some serious change - including the allowances I'm guessing a 50% uplift on your job in London. Watch for bonuses though - the culture might not be what you are expecting...

To the OP.

How to influence people and make friends. Nicely done, nicely done :rolleyes:

Damn, I missed a proper hissy fit!

Why do people expect so much from a first post and get so stroppy when someone asks them a question? Do they really think they are owed comprehensive answers? :confused:


And I refer you to the thread in the sandpit about the quality of new posters...
