Funniest thing ever seen at a prop firm

Quote from yeayo:

what does getting 'sharked' mean?

and do fights ever breakout on the floor/pit with all that emotion?

i saw a close fight once when a broker took an order for his own account and gave the options trader a bum fill - the options trader was watching him fill the order in the next pit. the options guy daernt raise a finger though cos he would be off the floor asap with no job. the broker never got anymore orders from the options guys though


sharking is when you get an order card that brokers use. you rip a diagonal and then bend an edge, then a small rip goes down the diagonal crease.

this will now fit under the back of a jackets collar without the twat knowing - so he walks round all day with a cardboard triangle (sharks fin) sticking out nis neck.

instead of a triangle, some folks would rip a phallic shape and add a few graphics.

cries of 'shark' then turn in to.....


KNOB!! KNOB!! LOOK AT THAT KNOB!
 
One of the better ones I've seen is when a trader brings his girl to the floor, lean on a booth maybe to show her his cards then someone sticks paper spurs in his shoes and as they walk down the aisle people start saying heeya, tipping a phantom cowboy hat and the couple does know why
 
Who can forget the cast of characters at Hold Brothers....GH...Lunker...Naresh...Fettner...the Balboas...and Eddie the guy who lost so much of the firms money that they made him a manager and was later convicted of the charges currently being faced by Michael Jackson



:D:D
 
No BS-

Someone spit a hoccer across the SPX pit and it landed in a broker's mouth as he went to yell out an order. I believe the recepient of the hocker was the intended target, so it worked out quite well.

It was also fun to place the pickels from Finkel's sandwiches in the pockets of people's trading jackets and watch them pull them out 3 weeks later....
 
I saw a guy sht his pants one day when trying to make a huge fart to make people laugh. He was trying so hard that he actually sht his pants. It was hilarious. Everyone was trying to fart and all of the sudden you heard like this sound of diharea coming out. It was friggn classic hilarious stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
He has a postion on too and it ran up on him during the fiasco.

Oh, how you feel bad for people who dont know the life that traders go through sometimes!!! LOOOOOOOOOL

LOL! With a name like PumpandDump, are you sure it wasn't you???

lol - now everyone knows how glamorous trading really is!

crapping your pants,
getting spat on,
stabbed in the ribs with pencils for having ginger hair

etc

pit trading is probably the best paid manual labor in town though
