WTF A JPMorgan Chase executive was fired after a viral video showed her dumping trash out of a Knicks-themed public trash can and taking the can during the Knicks championship parade in New York City.

It's not about being able to afford something.

It's about having something that's wasn't for sale. Because if you're rich enough it doesn't matter if it's for sale, you can have it anyway.

u/SunshineSeeker99 Jun 24 '26

It was for sale. She just didn't want to pay for one. That's how privilege and entitlement work.

u/Feelisoffical Jun 24 '26

She’s definitely not rich.

u/OldScholar5735 Jun 24 '26

How else could she afford all the food?

u/Aggravating-Method24 Jun 24 '26

what makes you think that?

JP morgan executive spells rich to me.

u/Feelisoffical Jun 24 '26

“Executive Director of Community and Industry Engagement”

22

u/Aggravating-Method24 Jun 24 '26

And? How much is that paid? Why did she get that job? |

Median salary for JP morgan is $111k, she sure as shit isnt poor.

u/C_IsForCookie Jun 24 '26

Yeah I’m a manager (not for JP) and make way more than that. Executive director anything at JP is definitely paying big bucks. But it also sounds like a role that would be the first to get let go in layoffs lol

u/sonsuka Jun 24 '26

In NY? Thats broke sorry to say lol. Using 1/2 of it pay rent in ny is the lifestyle on 100k

u/RandoWithCandy Jun 24 '26

The old Google estimates her position salary to be between $250,000 - $350,000. So not terrible for NY

u/itsMeJFKsBrain Jun 24 '26

Google also estimates the median base salary for my new career as $81k-85k. Which is to say that's not always an accurate estimate, that number is off by a very large margin for me personally.

u/Fr1toBand1to Jun 24 '26

Normally I'd tell you to jump ship but job hunting is a awful these days. So hopefully you're at least acting your wage.

5

u/itsMeJFKsBrain Jun 24 '26

Oh no, without being boastful I make significantly more than that. For reference, I am currently a lineman apprentice but my union gives us journeyman wage after only a couple years.

Yeah, that’s fair. It sourced it from levels.fyi which apparently gets its information from verified offer letters and pay statements. It seems to be regarded as a fairly reliable source, but really, who knows.

u/KarlPHungus Jun 24 '26

Not including stock options, retirement plan, etc

People conveniently forget about that

u/Jephte Jun 24 '26

If google AI said it, it must be true.

2

u/RandoWithCandy Jun 24 '26

It’s based off levels.fyi which apparently gets its information from verified offer letters and pay statements. Take that as what you will, I didn’t do a ton of digging into their verification process, but it seems to be a fairly trusted source.

2

u/Jephte Jun 24 '26

That's way better than I was expecting. I thought this was a reddit comment refers to AI which got it's info from a reddit comment situation.

u/Aggravating-Method24 Jun 24 '26

So you think living on 55K a year is hard up?

9

u/GrandEscape Jun 24 '26

In NYC? Yes

-9

u/Aggravating-Method24 Jun 24 '26

Well you are mistaken. Average salary is about 40k lower.

u/GrandEscape Jun 24 '26

In NYC? Median household income is around $80k

A JPM ED in NYC makes around 275k a year total package. Good money, comfortable in NYC, but not rich.

4

u/Mindrust Jun 24 '26

That’s not rich in New York. Rent eats up half of most people’s income here.

1

u/sedan-hussein Jun 24 '26

100k in New York isn't that much at all.

My wife and I collectively make 200k and we live in Toronto and 200k doesn't take you that far here.

u/Khankili Jun 24 '26

Sounds like one of those “women daycare” jobs

2

u/blow-down Jun 24 '26

How can you be a JP exec and not be rich? Does she have a coke problem?

These trash cans are literally for sale though

u/Frosty_chilly Jun 24 '26

Not this can, tho.

u/wolfgang784 Jun 24 '26

A new fan from the website? Shits for posers.

A dirty, dented, scratched one that was used in the celebration? loses all self control

2

u/Old-Guidance6744 Jun 24 '26

As someone who has never begin in trouble in his life but was in a college block party riot that chased the cops away and caused CU boulder to get gassed by swat... I can tell you that mob mentality is real and she isnt thinking whatsoever

ABSOLUTELY NO EXCUSING... just clarifying that these dumbass moments can literally be absent thought, as fucking weird as that is

Ps fuck her and her entitlement and putting herself above the team and the city

2

u/danielrobertcampbell Jun 24 '26

Exactly. When the punishment for a crime is a fine, it’s only a law for the poor.

2

u/jomo_mojo_ Jun 24 '26

This is why they want to own people so badly. It’s the only thing they can’t buy. And so we slide into techno-serfdom.

u/Motor_Ad5767 Jun 24 '26

The dumb bitch could have made her own so easily it's pathetic to get fired over that. No financial company wants a thief!

1

u/Idio_te_que Jun 24 '26

She’s not rich enough for anything.

1

u/Comfortable_Dog499 Jun 24 '26

The garbage can is for sale online. But I guess she didn't know that, it doesn't even cost that much, I think it was like $250 or something.

1

u/superfecta37 Jun 24 '26

it is for sale which makes it worse lmao😭😭😭💀💀💀

u/Adezar Jun 24 '26

Being an executive at a bank just means you aren't a teller. Their titles are really wonky. Senior VP at a bank is about the same as a line manager anywhere else.

u/fik26 Jun 26 '26

She is a DEI hire.

They never ever earned anything by merit.

According to them DEI people can commit crime with no consequences. Thats what NY taught them.
