"Take a report (you're done)"
Here is the description of the blog:
"Take A Report: Who we are and why you LOVE IT
Similar to the way the Eskimos have over 50 different words for snow, “take a report�? means many things to many people.
Some believe the origins of telling others to “take a report” can be traced to the phone clerks who have toiled on the floor of the New York Stock Exchange for generations. Often social misfits and ne’er do wells, phone clerks have often been the bearer of bad news to trading professionals.
Some traditional usage:
Clerk: Take a report…you bought 5,000 TAR at thirty-eight cents and I met some guy at a wedding who used to bang your wife - no relationship, just selfish, dirty sex…she still enjoy “the vulcan”?
Trader: $0.38 ? THIRTY-EIGHT CENTS?!?! I CAN’T -
CLICK.
Take a report, pal. You’re done. "
