Something I think we'd all love to do. He's damn young (33) to commit career suicide - which is essentially the end result of his chosen manner of resignation. However, I have to admire the man for standing by his moral and ethical code. I'm also, oddly so, rather proud of the fact that he's a South African born chap.

The Goldman Sachs muppet manifesto – a departing executive's lengthy and very public screed against the company's blind pursuit of profits – is only the latest example of taking bridge-burning to an art form.
Greg Smith wrote that he once had pride in his employer but had watched it decay into a "toxic and destructive" environment where little or no thought is given to clients, only how to "make the most possible money off of them."
