I worked for the original Bank of America for 34 years, last year they closed down the dept.in which I worked. They sent the jobs to South Carolina, since the take over of Fleet, they had promised them jobs for 5 years. When Nations Bank took B of A over they ruined the bank on the West Coast.
Whoever decided to buy countrywide was totally crazy and I hope they are one of the 2800 associates they laid off.
