rage against the man

Why do we rejoice when a company loses? We want to see it go down...
We being the common (wo)man...the ones who receive a paycheck instead of signing them. We like to see "the man" get taken down a peg or two. "Good for them" we exclaim as slowly but surely they become a shell of their former glorious selves. "they should have done this", "they shouldn't have done that" we say in matter-of-fact tones, but aren't we all striving to be "the man".

Or maybe it's just where i work.

This rage-against-the-machine moment has been brought to you by the employees of TS otherwise known as my soon-to-be former co-workers. When a person quits/resigns, it serves as inspiration, a kick in the pants to say, this is not the end of the road. It seems my leaving in conjunction with management being ASS-hoooooooles (see Meet the Fockers) was enough to have a handful of people relay their wishes to get the hell outta this place.

I mean really, it's a small company, there's not much room to move up unless you're sleeping with one of management and there's only one single guy there (or is he? ;) ). So basically you're just here to put in a paycheck for the rest of your lives. Oh the fun. But then again I still have yet to work in a place that i really like...environment and all, but that's why I'm going back to school....

what are you going to do? Rage ON!
