Do you work for an evil corporation/industry?

I worked construction for more than 30 years...Environmentalists have hated us since forever...Often with good cause...

Oops, forgot...some of the EVIL companies I worked for include Bechtel, Parsons, and some of the other big, well connected construction companies...

i think his examples are pretty obvious

Those check cashing/payday loan places charge crazy interest rates too. Like 400% and up.

Negative amortization mortgage co's are pretty evil. So are universities.

That doesn't offer stocks or bonds? Likely not.

Pokytello, Idaho? HAH...what a trip down memory lane. When did they turn the old B.E. plant into the regional FBI headquarters? I went thru last summer, and was AMAZED at how the town had changed since I was there last in 86. My how Chubbuck has grown!

I help dairy cows, and I'm struggling to get some of our products "organic" certification. I guess PETA would consider my company evil, but most normal people wouldn't.

I work for an accounting firm. You could argue that accountants are evil.

 

[I Saw OJ]

I work for a casino.

At any given time during my shift I can walk down on the floor and find someone throwing their life away.

 

[aidanjm]

anyone resigned from a job, because they believed their employer was behaving in an immoral fashion?

Especially an Indian casino, like Thunder Valley, which has gaffed chips in most of their slots and video machines. When it first opened, we went there a few times, but have since steered clear, as they pack the house, but you see very few winning anything.

OTOH, a trip to Nevada, and you can play for a couple days on the same money Thunder will take from you in a couple hours. They have a license to steal, and they don't take prisoners.
Whatever you do, do not use a players card, or slot card in those places. Someone, who knows told me, that once they decide you are a loser, and you will keep losing, once they have "your number".

Ok, I see the error of my ways.

Once they decide you are a loser, you will keep losing, once they have "your number".
Your card goes in, the odds change. If you get whacked in there, and they know you will be back, they will find a way to keep whacking you. That simple. :shocked:
