This blog
discusses the true state of corporate social responsibility as a campaign of
propaganda that throws around appealing buzz words like
"sustainability", but it is truly a farce that only the willfully
ignorant pretend to buy into in attempt to ease their conscience. Why listen to
me, you ask? Am I just another ungrateful, lazy worker? Another complainer
living in the land of privilege and freedoms? Well, to answer that question, I
feel I can speak with some authority on the matter as the
nameless-Fortune-500-company happens to be in the outsourcing business. This
means that I am handling several other well-known multinational corporations'
dirty work, and I am well aware of the declining state of customer service and
general growing deceitfulness of business practices.
This is a
subject that I am very passionate about as I have watched friends and family
members deteriorate emotionally and physically under the yoke of corporate
slave drivers. In the summer of 2010, when I came to the decision to make a
major life change - dropping to part-time to pursue my continuing education
efforts on full-time basis - not one, but eight ambulances had been dispatched
within an eight week span to care for my co-workers who were collapsing under
the stress. To clarify, we work in an office building, not a warehouse,
or a construction site; we work in a setting where the only normal occupational
hazard is carpal tunnel syndrome.
Throughout
this blog I will highlight corporate efforts to siphon the wealth out of
society and impoverish the masses. Let's open up the discussion and stir public
outrage. I invite you share and collaborate together with me and other
followers on your stories but, most importantly, your ideas for change.
love the favicon! I can't wait to read your next post!
