MD won't let me join calls unless I looksmaxx
Throughout high school and college I was always the 'ugly' kid. Although I don't think I'm THAT bad (maybe 4.5/10), I could never get girls. One time one of the cheerleaders at my school (7.5/10) asked me out as a joke and laughed at me when I said yes. I decided to go into IBD because I wanted to make up for my looks with wealth and status.
Anyways, I started my analyst stint a few months ago at a top BB (GS/JPM/MS/Citi) but for some reason I wasn't being put on any client meetings even though all my peers were. After discussing with a mentor, I decided to raise this issue with my MD. The VP next to him gave him a weird look, and the MD pulled me into his office and told me that he can't put me in front of clients unless I start looksmaxxing (I had no idea what this even was). I asked what he was talking about and he said that I'm simply too unattractive to put in front of clients and I need to starting mewing and jelqing for at least 6 months before they can consider letting me join. What the hell even is jelqing?
Has anyone else had this experience? It feels kind of toxic and I'm not sure if I should try to lateral to other banks or if I should take his advice and starting mewing at the desk while modelling. How will this affect my bonus?
It's time to switch to IT.
If this is real, then you will need to go on reddit and ask the lads there.
This is real, I'm the MD.
