Here’s James O’Keefe two months ago employing the Book of Saul — “Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon*” — back against the ideology that created it, and posing as a Brooks Brothers-suit wearing Wall Street businessman. O’Keefe offered Occupy Wall Street jobs and funding for their Marxist venture — which the OWS gang seemed pretty eager to accept. Their false consciousness, programmed via college lectures may tell them that property is theft, but hey, a buck’s a buck, right?
And here’s the New York Post, today:
She held signs that read, “Reagan sucks,” and, “I’ll vote after the revolution.”
But she said she still needed to get a real job. So she made a new sign.
On the front, she wrote, “Ph.D. Biomedical Scientist seeking full time employment,” and on the back, “Ask me for my resume.”
It caught the eye of Wayne Kaufman, chief market analyst for John Thomas Financial Brokerage. The exec wasn’t looking to hire, but he took Postert’s résumé anyway.
That was Oct. 22, Postert’s Day 10 as an Occupier.
The next day, Kaufman, impressed by her CV, sent her an e-mail asking if she’d like to come for an interview.
It wasn’t far — only two blocks from Zuccotti Park at 14 Wall St.
“I had been unemployed for so long, I thought why not?” said Postert, adding that she is in her 30s and has no background in finance or business.
Wall Street hiring someone who despises Republicans? Oh sure, like that’ll ever happen. Next, you’ll be telling me that gambling is going on at Rick’s Cafe.
