One of the questions we&#39;re asking banking professionals in our 2010 Banking Survey is this: What is an interesting or little-known fact about your firm?&lt;p&gt;Below are a sampling of answers we&#39;ve received so far. Can you guess which firm fits the fun? Four synthetic CDOs says you can&#39;t.&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;&quot;We&#39;re run by bankers with short-man syndrome&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;We believe we&#39;re the only investment bank with a former professional rodeo cowboy on staff&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;There have only been five CEOs since we were founded 75 years ago, and four of them still show up to the office on a regular basis&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;You need to be in the click if you want to stick (around). Serious &#39;bro click.&#39;&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;The founder of our original company had a profound impact on the telecommunications industry and was know as the &#39;father of cable.&#39;&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;There&#39;s a guy who works in the building who used to be an Elvis impersonator and he retains the Elvis hairstyle. He can often be found outside smoking (many times a day). If you work here, you may be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of this man, who is known by some simply as &#39;mullet man.&#39;&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;We have the worst elevators in New York City.&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Our building was meant to be the tallest building in the city, until the Great Depression began and closed off much of the funding.&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;We&#39;re the single largest corporate donor to Haiti relief.&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Our office has unofficial basketball and wakeboard teams.&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;Fondue is served every day in the canteen.&quot;&lt;p&gt;&quot;We are not a vampire squid wrapped around the face of humanity.&quot;&lt;/i&gt;
