At FT Alphaville, we were surprised to come across a note sent to Jane Street’s New York office, where they have encountered an unusual problem with their physical plumbing:

bcc: ny-fulltime, ny-interns
Due to the flushing of inappropriate items down the toilet, there has been another sewage leak on the redacted floor. This has required significant clean up, repairs, and the shutdown of a considerable portion of the floor. This is not just a smelly mess; it is highly disruptive. Therefore, we want to emphasize what was mentioned by name redacted last week after the second incident: DO NOT FLUSH ANYTHING…
As you can imagine, this has caused inconvenience for the traders at Jane Street, but thankfully their operations have not been affected. The reasoning behind specifically notifying the firm’s summer interns in New York is still unclear.
A representative from Jane Street has chosen not to provide any comments regarding this matter.
