I assume most people are just better at swallowing their pride or don't really see that they're in the belly of the Beast. I've always hated every job that was ever for a large company. Everything always feels soulless and painted over with a veneer of platitudes.
Yeah, I feel like I’m too idealistic to exist in that environment. I see right through the veneer while everyone else stares at it talking about how lucky they are to see it. It’s soul sucking…
I think the move to a big company was a mistake for me and I’m realizing that now.
It was definitely soulless in corporate accounting. Everything seemed pointless. Who really cares if I coded a payable for a few boxes of cleaning rags to "5502001 Shop Expense - Consumables" instead of "5502002 Shop Expense - Supplies"? I certainly didn't. But the controller did, that soulless drone.
