I am quite educated and quite informed............having several bank
clients for years. While being named a vice president of a bank is a
step
up, it is not the same as being named a VP of most other corporations
(like
a General Motors for example)
Hell, even the VP's joke about being a VP.

Well Fritz, I think that you are in need of an advanced education if you
think that being a VP of a CANADIAN bank is anything like what you have in
the USA. They are not the same and the positions are not the same.
Canadian Banks are run nationally and not like your regional banks. My
daughter's division, at the bank, has over 14,000 employees reporting to
her. Being a V. P. here is no joke!

The banks in the US of A went national quite a few years ago. You really
should read international new sources, not just your local Canadian ones.

The bank I was refering to is an international bank and one of the ten
largest in the world.

There are several levels of VP's in this bank......a VP is basically a
meaningless title, there is "first" VP, "Senior" VP and "Executive"
VP,.............those are just the ones I have run into.

I think Jim is the one that needs an advanced education....since reading
comprehension seems to be one of his shortcomings............
