When the forecast calls for a recession, these cuts and corporate disorganizational moves just make sense...well they make sense to someone!

They were not axed. Teri and Andy left voluntarily to pursue other opportunities. Opportunities which I cannot get into at this time, but which you will hear about in the future.

Sounds to me like the all male bank does not like women. What a crock of poop. I would sue them for gender discrimination.
