<p>[QUOTE=&quot;stldanceartist, post: 2634536, member: 13307&quot;][USER=80814]@TommyP[/USER] - I&#039;m not so sure I&#039;d agree with the term &quot;slave labor&quot; either, but having been an employee of a regional bank where I was not trained to do even some basic functions of a bank teller (seriously, training was supposed to be 6 weeks and they cut us loose after 1.5 weeks, even though I and the other teller who was training both communicated that we did not feel comfortable with most of what we were supposed to do.)&nbsp; Bank didn&#039;t care - wasn&#039;t going to waste time teaching us anything related to our jobs.&nbsp; But I had the right to leave when I wanted to (I did.)&nbsp; They did spend most of their communication with us (once we were out in a bank) trying to push harassing customers to sign up for products they did not need.&nbsp; The customers hated it, we didn&#039;t understand the details of the products we were tasked with pushing, and it was the only thing corporate seemed to care about.</p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=2098]@NOS[/USER] - I will definitely disagree with you on the term &quot;mistake.&quot;&nbsp; This was an intentional, calculated decision by the leadership of Wells Fargo to create fake accounts in order to fudge the companies&#039; numbers to make the stock price go up.&nbsp; That is fraud, not a mistake.&nbsp; A mistake is &quot;we counted your deposit incorrectly&quot; or &quot;we spelled your name incorrectly&quot; or &quot;a page on our website doesn&#039;t work or has typos.&quot;&nbsp; A mistake is unintentional.&nbsp; The CEO only semi-apologized after being reamed in Congressional hearings, and had Congress not gotten involved, it would still be business as usual at WF.&nbsp; Don&#039;t portray it as &quot;the CEO realized the error of his ways and apologized and made everything right at the company&#039;s expense.&quot;&nbsp; EDIT: Also, I forgot to add that when certain WF employees discovered the fraud and reported it, they were immediately terminated and escorted from WF property.&nbsp;&nbsp; <i>Getting caught and being forced to admit your fraudulent activities is not an apology.</i>[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
