Former Lehman Bros. head of IB sends whiny letter to his kid's prep school board
As F. Scott Fitzgerald said, the rich are different than you and me, so watch and learn from our "betters"...

Skip McGee III, former head of investment banking at Lehman Brothers (which of course, went out of business due to the incompetence and greed of its head managers), current head of investment banking at Barclays sent a letter to the board of directors at the exclusive prep school his kids go to, the Kinkaid School. It whines about the staff at the school, the "gay, female coach", the "leftist invective" of another teacher etc.

"Why is a married, heterosexual coach considered an oddity at Kinkaid? Why is a gay female coach telling high school girls on her team that she was disappointed in them...?"

The straw that broke the camel's back for Skip McGee III was a skit that the football team wanted to do that the faculty cancelled because it was sexist. The football players did the skit anyhow, and got yelled at.

4. "And so in conclusion: I *demand* that members of my family be served triple Cappucinos...
in the cafeteria and elsewhere and at their beck & call and FREE of charge" :silly: Now you see why they think they deserve every single penny they are able to grift - they're B-A-N-A-N-A-S *and* shit bonkers!

8. the letter gives his address
I wonder how this letter got leaked. It might lead to another letter from dear Skip.

A sense of entitlement runs deeps. BTW, what did you think of his son, the 11th grader, crying? He just did a lot of damage to Skip IV's social life. LOL.

9. Too bad I don't travel in the right circles to pop this guy in the jaw.
That's the problem with these people, when the only people around you are the ones you pay, then there's no one to tell you what an asshole you are.

11. Skippy seems to be the model for Caddyshack's Judge Smails
"It's easy to grin / When your ship comes in / And you've got the stock market beat. / But the man worthwhile, / Is the man who can smile, / When his shorts are too tight in the seat."

"Oh Porterhouse, look at the wax build up on these shoes I want that wax stripped off there, then I want them creamed and buffed with a fine chamois, and I want them now. Chop chop."

Spalding get your foot off the boat!

I've sentenced boys younger than you to the gas chamber. Didn't want to do it. I felt I owed it to them

Well, the world needs ditch diggers, too.
