Hi, I am Carol Harmer.. I started my career back in 1982 when I got a job working for a brand new Financial Exchange called LIFFE….Now LIFFE wasnt built yet, but it was being built within the Royal Exchange Building….It was new, It was exciting, and at that time there was only 6 of us minions who were there…Foe a few months we ran simulated trading sessions, where frankly all you had to do was turn up 3 times, scream and shoult about and hey presto, there you was, a Trader…
Every single achievment LIFFE made was ” celebrated” at the Mithras Wine Bar..We were based in Old Jewry….sonot a long way to go…Mostly we did training sessions, and liastened to Ken Heymer who was the floor manager..I actually got interviewed in the Mithras wine bar by Ken, and it was the best interview Id ever had, he explained what LIFFE hoped to do, and was so laid back…I was Harmer, he was Heymer, so he called me sis….I got the job, and here my real life began…
