If I don't believe in a company then I couldn't see myself working there, even if I were unemployed (which I was recently). I just despise the industry so much that I couldn't even walk into the building let alone work there and help kill people on a daily basis.

I hate them too, and I hate what they stand for. I hate how they have trashed our landscape across the nation and you can't go anywhere without seeing their ugly signs.
I wish they would all just go away. I don't care about their convenience. I don't want their sickening greasy food and hormone-laden dairy cow beef burgers.
We have too many of them already. How can people eat that crap? The more chickens and cows that have to be raised like unliving beings just to give them this garbage food is sickening.
I remember working in a hospital for children that had a McDonald's on the first floor and it was looked on as so cute and Ronald McDonald and all that. Made me sick...how they exploit children and feed them that crap.

Absolutely right. Like I said, when one of my jobs started included "sales"...and we were rated on our "sales", I quit.

Cleaning out the heat exchanger at a coal fired plant.

Think 6 inch metal pipes a foot apart in rows about 3 feet apart in a stack two hundred feet high covered with a heavy cement ash that has to be knocked off by hand while wearing respirators.

I think you should try out for the position of the Ronald McDonald clown.

I think the worst to work for is a cpa firm. They work you to death. I am working in a cpa firm right now for the past 4 weeks and I hate it as I am used to private industry. I only took job because I was out of work 8 mths from a permanent job, but still looking.

Tylenol is bad for your liver. Try Ibuprofin with some food.
