Welcome to the WSO weekly wrap-up, where I talk with my team about the five most

trending discussions in the Wall Street Oasis community. Enjoy.

All right, everybody. Welcome. It's the weekly wrap-up again. It's May 18th. Matt's going to,

we're just going to cover two topics today. Matt, you want to get us started? Sure. We're back from a hiatus here, all busy working, but glad to have everyone back on this call. First topic I found actually quite funny trending this week was an individual talking about quitting after one day of interning. So he spent one day, felt like he couldn't't do it and started contemplating texting his boss

you want text and i feel embarrassed but i be isn't right for me um what do you guys think on this

i think this is something crazy um some funny some funny comments around just suck it up it's only

eight weeks um but pat will start up with you what do you think of of something like this

quitting after one day

of interning yeah i mean i think it's a bad look i think it can really ruin your reputation um even if

you do a poor job or like show up late it's better than just like giving up after day one um yeah

just like do what you have to do for your mental health, just to like get it on your

resume so that you have something. So, because like you don't want to go through the summer

with nothing on your resume. So the crazy thing, though, is it's just like, didn't this individual

know what they're gaining themselves into with investment banking? I'm pretty sure, you know,

you bring up investment banking to anyone. It's directly correlated with like long hours, or at least that preconception is. So I just

find it so hard to believe that someone could get this role, do all this work, be smart enough to

land the role, and then just it's completely catching them off guard after one day about being in the seat. I think there has

be something more to this. It just doesn't make sense. How much could get done in one single day?

The first thing is so much onboarding. You're doing training. You're talking about company

intricacies. Like what could have been so overwhelming that threw him off? I think.

Some guy asked he's like, what was the final straw? Was it like setting up your outlooks signature?

Yeah, it was too stressed. Exactly. Like, that's what I mean. Like, you were smart enough to land the role, right? We see it's not easy to get an IV role. And then all of a sudden, after one day of entering, you quit, I think there's something being missed out. but I guess a cooler angle to look at this as like it.
