She was a vice president of business selection and conflicts at the bank. Not The vice president of the bank.
Before anyone gets too excited.

such a clickbait of a headline. might as well have just said "random middle manager killed in New York"
vice president
Larger companies have hundreds to thousands of them. Nothing to get excited about.
yeah and some of them are tossed around like candy. seriously my last job people who would not even be a division had the title. it was like the easiest thing to get beyond middle management.
I used to work for Comcast at their HQ in Philly. It was more noteworthy to meet somebody who wasn't a vice president.
In unrelated news, here's a painting to symbolize how an acerage American feels about Bank of America.

VP in general is not a big thing... This is click bait.
Hmm. Well, ICE was in New York recently, and given the preponderance of criminals they hire ...
Oh that’s good news, thank you for brightening our day 🌞💖
Oh no, was the knife damaged?
Hopefully it was a quality knife and is easily cleaned
Unless it only went through tissue, probably.
Friendly reminder to folks that you should always keep your knives sharp. It's safer to cut with a sharp knife so the edge doesn't slip.
Look, let's end the debate easy: if tomorrow morning, the GOP decides to take action to prevent and address mental illness, that means she was a big shot.
If it's the usual thought and prayers, she was a small fish.
Vuce president = middle manager
The title has lost most meaning it used to have. This is just a random killing
A tad above middle typically… it’s generally already within executive / leadership realm that the title exists.
Sept 1 (Reuters) - A Bank of America (BAC.N), opens new tab vice president was killed in a stabbing in New York City's Times Square on Monday, sending a shock wave through the bank after the random incident took place in broad daylight in the heart of the city's tourist industry. Erin Piacenti, 32, was a vice president in BofA's business selection and conflicts unit, according to her LinkedIn profile. The NYPD said that the suspect was a woman with a history of mental health issues.
Probably was exactly as described, but I still question anything cops say, especially NYPD. There's a chance they killed her to prevent discovery that this wasn't a random event, to avoid another Luigi situation. Not a big chance, but a chance. Ten years ago, I would have scoffed at such a suggestion, now I'm making it myself.
2 people died- this poor girl and also the knife wielding maniac; watching the video though it did not seem like a situation that warranted lethal force from the officers
Witnesses flagged down nearby officers, who confronted Cisneros between West 42nd and 43rd streets while she was still holding both knives
You remember those playing cards that were popular in the early 00's? The ones that were given to US Troops in Afghanistan or Iraq or whichever country W was mad at at the time....with the pictures of Taliban leadership?
That was a pretty cool idea.
We should bring something like that back, but so that people can recognize some of the most powerful people in public.
Not so that they can hurt them, obviously, I wouldn't endorse that.
Just to make sure that if somebody were to hurt them, they make sure not to fucking see it
We don't have to be limited to 52 either. We can do different sets for different industries. Banking, housing, medical, pharma, fucking FedEx, whatever. Be a big collectible. Great holiday gift for anyone who is 3 months closer to poverty than they are to prosperity.
Corporate hierarchy is somewhat nebulous.
In general, they tend to break it a little bit like:
Pleeb(1-3)->Team lead-> Manager-> Director-> VP -> C-staff -> maybe founder
If they have multiples of the higher level stuff, they'll make them juniors or seniors. And then they'll add more of the same position if they're dealing with more people.
And then, of course, they'll just add titles to pay people more money if they've been there for a while or they make them more money.
I've never understood why all those big companies want to congregate on Times Square. It's essentially impossible to set up any type of security perimeter outside the building. And there are regularly nut balls all over the place right there.
Lemmy seems to be infested with despicable freaks that think murder of CEO-level people in corporate america is a good thing
