Well, I'm screwed

I started a new job working as in-house counsel for a bank this week but had no idea I would joining the world's newest despised profession. A local mayor was having his annual "State of the City" address to assembled business leaders and I was drafted to attend in place of one of the corporate officers. A street preacher outside the event held a sign which all but called down hellfire and damnation on evil bankers while the preacher called out to all in earshot that bankers are worse than prostitutes. I asked one of the loan guys if I was a banker, since I don't make loans. He responded in the affirmative, cementing my place with the damned.
