What ARE They Doing??

-
A note to our readers whose birth decade is the 70's (or earlier):

Next time you decide to hire (if ever) a fresh new analyst straight out of college, b-school etc. and you notice in the resume that the candidate has been a Summer Twintern(!), don't embarrass yourselves by asking what this is - you 'll only show how far behind you are left in the information super-highway (actually using this expression is a strong signal of tardiness itself). Also do not risk breaking any valuable "objets d' art" sitting on your desks, by remembering the 5GB spreadsheets you were running, back when you were interning at one of the venerable financial institutions that has since ceased to exist.
