Satin in a Coffin - Modest Mouse (My other song of the day)

Jan 16, 2005 00:39

Well my court date is on the 20th. Off I go to be judged. But I think I have this licked. Tell them everything they want to hear, but interject the truth of my ambitions that I finally found before this all even started. We'll see. But I'll tell you what, it's the job that will kill you. Never work for a corporation. I held this oppinion long ago, and people scoffed. But now that I've been putting up with this nonsense, my views on this have only strengthened. I'm tired of dealing with idiots all around me. What happened to basic intelligence? The people I work with don't know what a nazi is, they don't know who we fought against in WWII, they don't know where the current conflict is being fought, and one girl voted for Bush because "he was going to win anyway". One girl told me that she doesn't understand me because I use words she doesn't know. Call me judgemental but I think this is solid eveidence of why this country is the way it is today.

Quote of the day:

"A corporation, essentially, is a pile of money to which a number of persons have sold their moral allegiance."

-Wendell Berry
