re: Musing on corporate types in a BBQ joint.

Corporations are just like any other community. You have all types. And though those types are all over my organization, I am the antithesis of that. I extract monies from my soul-sucking multi-National employer and bemoan their idiocy at every turn. I do not care if they fire me for not playing their games, and I let that be known, for I will be gainfully employed shortly thereafter.

I tried explaining to a woman the other day at a Xmas party in my neighborhood that I have no career aspirations and have no desire to be promoted because I make far more than my boss and all I care about is my compensation. She said “that’s so sad” - I didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
