  • MBA means Mediocre But Arrogant

  • If you're going to invade a place which people have worked very hard to get accepted to and are paying a lot of money to attend with rhetoric of entitlements and leftist outrage, you're surprised at the response? This was an OWS tactic and look at as all here, watching and commenting...

  • @rwfw74 Respectfully, the outrage expressed by the protestors has nothing to do with "leftist outrage" and everything to do with the amoral behavior of the big banks.

  • @TheMrLandon If you believe OWS is focused exclusively on bank regulation, you may have cracked a code that 100s of journalists have failed to achieve in the weeks they've been interviewing these folks. As for the Wharton students (admittedly weak) retorts, you can't blame them for resenting a horde of invaders painting all of business with the same broad brush.

  • @rwfw74 Yeah it must be very hard work for their bankster parents to commit fraud and run their companies in the ground, lobby the government and bribe politicians to get taxpayer bailouts and use that to pay themselves bonuses so they can send their kids to some cushy elitist school. Very hard work indeed.

  • @esc1127 You are confused, sir. Wharton's MBA program is hardly filled with scions of the elite. It is filled with those applicants who have high GPAs, 95 percentile + GMAT exams and 3-5 years of high performance in the workplace or military. So, no.

  • @rwfw74 No you are either confused or trying to mislead everyone. This is a bankster school, nothing more.

    Applicants go in out of High School, not from the workplace. Now the only people that can afford to go there out of high school and are well connected enough to get past the strict admissions process are the super elite. Over half of their graduates become investment bankers. Says it in the wiki. This is just a school of organized crime.

  • @esc1127 you are smoking crack. There is an undergraduate program that is part of U Penn, but the real "Wharton School" is the graduate school. And like most top MBA programs, plenty go into finance, but they also become marketers, entrepreneurs, run hospitals and non profits. Do some research, you ignoramus! Did you even finish high school?

  • @esc1127 "Applicants go in out of High School, not from the workplace. Now the only people that can afford to go there out of high school and are well connected enough to get past the strict admissions process are the super elite."

    As a freshman Wharton student, I can assure you this is NOT true at all. You are most definitely more likely to meet wealthy, well-connected students here than at other schools, but they are by no means the majority.

  • Apparently they don't teach irony in business school.

  • @cherub42 yeah they dont ....they teach hard practical math and how to build a company ....no need for Irony when you go to the top business school in the U.S

  • Why would you go after people that are going to business school???? This is the best possible example of OWSers being just plain jealous... rich mommies and daddies don't get you into Wharton, you do. So these people are going to school to learn how to run a business and these jokes decide to go give them shit? WTF? Occupiers are dumb as shit

  • To me, these elite students are the real white trash. We need to get rid of them.

  • @droningforever how you moron? Cause they go to a school that you could never get into? wtf... you're an idiot

  • According to the Department of Labor, there is currently 1 job opening for every 4 unemployed people. I don't think it's that simple.

  • It's the fault of a bunch of students that I can't get a job with my History of the French Neo-Renaissance Movement of the 1970's degree.

  • I'm sorry but Wharton kids are never going to have a problem finding a job.

  • It's great that someone is holding up a sign at the end "I prefer not to" LOL!

  • So these wharton students want to better themselves, they get an education to be prosperous & these assholes dead beat trash go to protest against their will to become better hard working citizens. these are the leaders of tomorrow & the job creators of this country. GET A FUCKING LIFE PROTESTORS & GET A FUCKING JOB. GET OF THE WELFARE & FOOD STAMPS, YOU WASTE OF LIFE..

  • Get a fucking JOB & stop using my taxes to free load & use it as an excuse to protest for more money, you lazy ass mother fuckers.. You protestors are a bunch of pathetic uneducated free loading mutha fuckers. Get a fucking life & make something of yourselves, if not, then get the fuck out of the USA & go to cuba or venezuela.. Take obama rich ass with you too..

  • "Get a Job"?? What a profound statement! Considering that there is only 1 job out there for 4 applicants, it appears the probability of that is slim. And by the way--financial sector is dwindling too, so some of these Wharton clowns will be joining the OWS movement in a few months. The funny thing is that the unemployment rate is only 15% for the OWS movement based on latest polling. Also, it is funny how Eric Cantor was too afraid to show up to give his speech..... give me a break!

  • Use your brain and LOOK AT US PAY DATA, It's Awful: There were fewer jobs and they paid less last year, except at the very top where, the number of people making more than $1 million increased by 20 percent over 2009. Fewer jobs, less pay and the Occupation is not going away….

  • Shouldn't you be working before you tell people to,"get a job"?

  • @Douglas1102 no? many students (MBA and ugrad) already have jobs waiting for them upon graduation, even though they may not be working at this very moment...

  • @adidasx45 "no?" hmmm.... you don't sound very sure. By your logic they should shut up because most of the people in the protest will eventually be working after graduating just like they will be. It's a stupid hypocritical chant ... the entitlement and sense of superiority is disgusting and it's typical of spoiled 'tards the got into university for reasons other than genuine merit.

  • @Douglas1102 in order to get into Wharton you need at least a couple years of experience at a job (and you have to do your job better than anybody else)... so yeah, I'm pretty sure they'll be working a job when they graduate too

  • @scottj19x89 English isn't your first language is it? (at least I hope not) "at least a couple years experience at a job" is nonsense... and it says so right on Wharton's FAQs for entrance. You're either a liar or an idiot or most likely both.

  • @Douglas1102 you don't HAVE to have a couple years of experience at a job to get into wharton... but good luck getting in without it. Seriously dude, don't look on a website, read a sentence, then act like you've noticed a trend... It is EXTREMELY hard to get into a top b-school without work experience, the only people who get in without work experience (very very small percentage) are the people with 4.0s at top universities and great GMATs

  • @scottj19x89 More babbling bullshit... 26% of entrants had no job experience. You clearly said that it was required so don't even try to back-pedal out of it.

  • @Douglas1102

    "The average student has worked for five or six years between college and the MBA program. The program does accept early career candidates with limited or no experience who exhibit strong managerial and professional potential." see people who have previous advanced degrees, stellar academic performance or international athletic accomplishments.

  • get a job? i'd like a corporate job where i screw the economy and country over and have the govt. pay for my mistakes then broadcast from the many TV stations i own that the people i screwed over should get a job.

  • @goemon9378 Just cause you go to business school doesn't mean that you're going to do that.... you fucking idiot. Are all you occupiers so fucking stupid?

  • @scottj19x89 "Just cause you go to business school doesn't mean that you're going to do that.... you fucking idiot." -> and just because people are protesting doesn't make them not have a job or "fucking idiots", idiot.

    when you go to a school like wharton you can expect to have a nice cushy job in a culture that encourages elitism and corruption such as are prevalent in today's society. hello? not been reading the news? pick up a newspaper before calling people "fucking stupid"

  • @goemon9378 When did I say that the protesters must not have a job?... so going to Wharton makes you a bad guy because it ALLOWS you to get a nice corporate job (ALLOWS not guarantees or means that that is what you're going to school for)? You're not even worth it, moron. You're generalizing business school students.... there are teachers, engineers, people that work in nonprofits, etc. that go there.. it's not all bankers.. jesus

  • @scottj19x89 "When did I say that the protesters must not have a job?" -> since you are so busy defending wharton students you didn't mention one iota of what the clip was about: mocking the protesters telling them to not get a job.

    "You're generalizing business school students" -> i'm sure teachers and engineers make an average of $142k a year like the average of graduates make from this school after graduating and $225k after five years...more likely they are corporate fat cats.

  • @goemon9378 "corporate fat cats"... gotta love that term... of course the people from Wharton are going to mock them. They came into THEIR school and gave them shit for GOING TO SCHOOL... how can you not? Are you supposed to sympathize with the assholes that just walked into your school to give you shit for trying to better your life?.... And who cares if somebody makes 142k a year? how do you know that they're morally corrupt because of it? You're just insanely jealous and pathetic

  • @scottj19x89 "how do you know that they're morally corrupt because of it? " -> if you think govt bought politicians giving companies like GE tax breaks where they paid zero in taxes last year is not immoral or that the CEO ratio to average worker ratio is 475:1 is not extreme (where other developed nations like japan is 11:1) in this shitty economy then you need to educate yourself on either 1) morals, 2) facts.

  • @goemon9378 WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH A BUSINESS SCHOOL? Jesus fuck...

  • @scottj19x89 "You're just insanely jealous and pathetic" -> yea, i'm jealous of countries like canada with more regulated banking system. but think whatever you want to keep in your bubble

  • @goemon9378Claiming, "Jealous" is the inevitable last resort of a university 'tard that can't argue his point. It's a textbook example of ad-hominum and anyone who makes such idiot arguments has no business attending post secondary education.

  • @Douglas1102 ""Jealous" is the inevitable last resort of a university 'tard " -> university?? no way.

  • @Douglas1102 how else would you describe it when somebody is condemning anybody that makes over 142k a year?.... hmmmm... I don't see any logical thinking there, so jealousy isn't TOO bad of an assumption

  • @scottj19x89 No one is condemning everyone that makes over 142K a year... you just made that up (which is also ad-hominum or more specifically character assassination). Obviously you're incapable of understanding the simplest forms of logic so don't expect anyone to be surprised if, "you don't see it".

  • @goemon9378 it's not like the students went to the occupiers... other way around dipshit

  • @scottj19x89 " You're not even worth it, moron." -> i know, knowledge isn't worth it to some people. have fun in your bubble.

  • Those Wharton losers are as pig ignorant as they are condescending. A recent study of the OWS movement showed that about 13.5% of the people there are unemployed.

    Facts are stubborn things you corporatist thug motherfuckers.

  • @mojorhythm In fact, the vast majority of the OWSers have AT LEAST done some college. About 23% are post-grads!

    They literally do represent the 99%.

  • Of course Wharton students don't like OWS...they decided to attend Wharton largely on the hopes that the MBA they receive from that school will get them a high paying job on Wall Street.

    One thing they might want to take into account is the fact that Wall St. isn't what it was 4 years ago. There are a lot fewer jobs now in the financial sector. They mock the protesters, but some of THEM may find themselves unemployed with a shitload of student debt in a couple of years.

  • I think it's a fair question....why don't they get a job?

  • @icedbannanas That's stupid. You really think the problem of unemployment is something that people make up out of the blue? And it will go away as soon as they want it to? Is that what happened during the great depression? People just didn't want to work?

  • @Thales880 I only say this because I'm fed up of people my age moaning that there aren't any jobs.In order to be employed I've done the most shitty and menial of jobs just to get along.factory work, office work, whilst at the same time taking loans out to finish my degree and then go do a law degree.If i can do it, and i'm no genius or wealthy person,then how can others not? My friends moan that there aren't any jobs, whilst I was doing temp work in a shitty factory so I wouldn't go on benefits!

  • @icedbannanas But do you think its alright that you have to go through ALL of that? Do you think students should have to worry about jobs yet? And paying off loans and stuff? 

  • @icedbannanas Well I'm glad you've been able to get by by working those jobs, but you can't assume that everyone is in the same situation. Unemployment varies greatly from state to state and from city to city. Young people are usually less likely to be employed because of their lack of skills and because of the fact that they tend to leave jobs easily, because they are merely looking for temporary jobs. That's not to mention that people tend to consider themselves unemployed even if they have..

  • @icedbannanas ... a part time job and are looking for a full time job. Many of the people in the Wall Street are parents who have kids to feed. You can't feed your kids on a part time job. That is why they have a problem with unemployment. It is not just a matter of having a job or not, it is a matter of making ends meet for your family. Students, although less employable, have an easier time getting by if they stay with their parents, or if they take advantage of grants or fafsa or scholarships
