- Several years ago, I was offered a position at a Major Prestigious NYC
- Bank. (So as not to protect the guilty, it was Morgan Guaranty.)
- They were in great need of a peculiar technical skill that I had at
- the time. I did not accept their offer (their reaction to my rejection
- is another little story).
-
- People who knew me and knew banking were very surprised at the offer
- though I didn't understand their surprise at the time. Apparently my
- obviously Jewish appearance made this offer unusual.
-
- Several years later, I spoke to a non-Jewish former employee of Morgan
- who confirmed that they avoid hiring Jews. They have hired Jews but
- would have been careful to make sure that customers never see me.
- Apparently, Morgan handles (handled?) much Arab money and these
- customers _DO_ get upset about Jews working for their business
- partners.
