FIFY, as long as the checks clear, I could careless if you like the company or not. 😘
Morality means nothing! Only money matters! Money is the most important thing!
As a capitalist myself, you’re my favorite kind of person. I love the ones that don’t question anything, do as they’re told and take whatever they get. Thank you for being you! ❤️
Now, hope you aren’t posting on the clock! If so get back to work you little scamp (imagine I’m affectionately ruffling your hair right now).
Just so we're clear, if you're making 25 an hour you're poor next to me. If you're making 40 an hour, you're still poor next to me.
And I don't have to work for a dirt ISP. Keep coping you degenerate.
