this is the question I asked myself constantly while working at Livebridge and then Synovate: is a paycheck worth your sanity, beliefs, mind and backbone?
NAY. IT IS NOT.
if you're debating with YOURSELF over whether or not you're going to hell over your job.. then you're halfway to becoming one of the many many zombified folk that sit in their uncomfortable armchairs day to day.. plugged into the screen, basing their day on SPH or performance rate.... the only goals you set for yourself are "OK MAN I'M GONNA GET 5 COMPLETES/SALES THIS HOUR! FUCKIN WOOOOOOOOO! GO TEAM!"
and you suck for contributing to it. Yeah it gives people jobs, and that's great... but in the long run, are you accomplishing a fucking thing? No. You are contributing to the diminishing standards of SOCIETY, nevermind yourself.
example: "HELLO SIRRRR. My name is Amy and I want you to do this survey to better this big, huge, disgustingly wealthy corporation so they can pile more folk into those CARAAAZY sweatshop things and make us fancy stuff! HYUCK!"
OR
"Hi there. Today I'm trying to sell you something you don't need... and I'll get fired if I don't whore this product at least 3 times during this call... so... you wanna buy debt?"
so yeah.. my point is jumbled, there's no words to describe the fact that what you're doing for a living is not a job, it is you dancing for the puppeteer.

i allways wondered what chase would think if they knew they had a bunch of high school kids sitting in a room playing cards, reading, and basically just fucking around and getting paid almost 9 bucks an hour to do it.
