CNBC: Merrill Employee "Inappropriately Relieved" Himself After Downsized Bonus

Earlier this afternoon, CNBC's Charlie Gasparino reported that some guy in Merrill Lynch's fixed income research group had "inappropriately relieved" himself in protest of the downsizing of his bonus. Merrill has officially explained that this was simply an unfortunate accident, and then the bank turned red and scurried to the other side of the room.

We've been digging into this story because the way it's told by the delicate souls at CNBC, it's way to vague. What worse, the vagueness is giving rise to rumors that are totally untrue. It's fast becoming the Wall Street equivalent of an urban legends. Here's what didn't happen: a guy did not urinate on his desk because he was "pissed off." The real story is so much worse.

In the first place, it wasn't piss. It was shit. DealBreaker can confirm this much.

I'm glad he's disgruntled. Maybe he'll have lots of company when they finally find out how much shady business that this and other companies have been up to, they'll ALL be downsized...maybe it'll mean a huge drop in cocaine futures, but hey, when it rains it pours...

Our foul, fetid, fiend at Merrill, Gooberfachey, Lunch & WotD'Hell makes a living by feeding his clients feces so fouling himself with his own crap can be expected. He could have bought his own crap & swallowed it too.

It does seem very wrong that anything should ever be downsized (or upsized) in the fixed income research group.
