I am good friends to this day with people who could not handle it.
As far as the ethics associated with this company. There exists, as in any company, a small group that tarnishes the reputation of the whole. I have seen a number of people terminated for unethical behavior. Nobody feels sorry for these people, they knew the rules and they broke them.
well put. Nobody lied to you...they told you from the beginning that you would work long hours and you just may have to <gasp> wash a car. But they also told you that if you were a hard worker and played the game right you would be rewarded. I am one of those people and I will say that I knew what I was getting into when I started. Now are there days that I question why I work here? Of course, but I would do it with any company. Facts of life. If this isn't for you, so be it. I know I would not miss a whiner.
