Why can't banks get the whole culture thing right? Tech is just as relevant as finance nowadays, and they are leading the way. Is it just an old boys club mentality that banks can't shake?

Client service industry makes culture difficult to stick to, assuming by culture we mean caring about juniors etc. I've found people care about you having a life up to the point that u need to do their work. They are also understanding that you are learning, up until the point you make a mistake.

I think people are starting to become less and less intense about that stuff. Aren't lots of banks doing casual dress codes? Regardless, it's an industry where MDs have worked 20 years to be able to get in the door of the worlds leading firms. A billion dollars is a lot of money. Why risk not being conservative?

There are acts of destruction daily in my classroom. Most of my classes are 25 kids in a small room. When my attention is taken for a second, someone does something like this. Gluing things to counters. Hiding paintbrushes instead of cleaning them. 15 years, I've tried everything to cultivate a respectful classroom culture, and they just don't care. I'm so tired. So, so tired. I don't know how much longer I can do this.

I really need advice/strategy for skill development, despite burn out and the weakened motivation. I am in a role that can, (in 2+ yrs), make me eligible to start at entry-level position in an area I want. I don't have 2 yrs.
