It gets worse than that. I spent time consulting in a major bank which had a few fancy skyscrapers. I still scratch my head at that scam. There was really nothing done there, every single process was outourced to some company. The whole purpose of the bank (outside of the investing department) was to a) mitigate risk on the loans, and b) to source what they needed from everyone else.
There really is no point in any of them existing, they don't do anything that the big investment firms already do (which again, I am sure is all outsourced). And unlike those big firms, they fleece the poor folks with the checking accounts.


Then there are these scams you see in the stores. Why do things still have the name RCA in outlet stores?

The instruction manual is from some other company. The wiring. The box. The cerciut board. The healh insurance. The call center. The marketing agency. The film studio. The custodians. The building. The land. The parking lot. The light buld repair people.
And when none of them do the work, they all blame each other.


Sure ain't like the Hudsucker Proxy.

I gotta get in on this assignment of benefits scam. Someone pays me $100/hour to do something, I pay soemone overseas $40/hour to do for me, and pocket the difference.
That's living.
