You've basically just admitted that you're a scumbag. As someone that spent years in the corporate world, I can tell you that it is pretty much impossible to do well if you have any sense of morals. I know people that think they're not doing anything wrong, and I know people that are well aware of their actions, but they still don't care.

corporations are a parasite on humanity

I see that you decided not to go with the usual "I'm a wealthy business owner " or "I'm a rich doctor/surgeon"

LOL, the poor slobs cant accept that I worked for a marketing firm that represents a pharm company devoloping websites to promote their products. But dont get all in a tiss, my wife works in the public sector so I can see that side of the fence with some objectivity also. Why is it so hard to believe that some people work in good jobs in the private sector?

Most Americans do not use this forum.

Pick however you want to judge us and I'll find you a forum to match.

Some people are tired of working with drug addicts and alcoholics who are almost never fired. Think Chrysler Auto plant for an example. Though the guys were let go, thanks to their Union reps, the guys who worked the line drunk or stoned are back on the job.

We do believe it...we just don't believe YOU.

Besides, why the need to explain what you do (or did), as if you wanted to be more convincing (you weren't)?

Correction: large corporations. There are hundreds of thousands of corporations that are both small and large, not all are bad no matter the size. Yes, some are moraless and only donate for the sheer purpose of tax-deductions but others are truly beneficial to our society. Personally, I'd love to work at corporate level within a corporation because of the sheer fact that it does pay well, it does provide excellent benefits, and etc. but I've managed exceptionally well thus far as a private worker within a consultate office; trust me it's far from corporate with the job I do although the building is corporate.
