> Dimon volunteered: "Don't send emails after you've had a drink."

good advice for everyone, not just bankers and politicians.



Don't send emails when you are angry either. Just wait a while before sending.


Best advice I ever had early on in my career.


Actually, just the act of writing out your anger or pain without actually sending it can reduce the anger or pain


Just fill in the address field at the top of the email last, if ever.


I wish social media sites had Gmail's anti-drunk posting safeguard. :)


"Wall St. got drunk" - G W Bush, re: 2008 financial meltdown, paraphrased.


This is what George Clooney said about Twitter:

"There's a real danger when you're really famous. I can have a drink or two at night; I don't need to have an apparatus that, in a drunken joke, even, I could say something, go to sleep, and wake up in the morning and my career be over."
