The thing is, as a society we keep supporting these scumbags. If we didn't continue to line their pockets, this would start to go away.

You can always say you are passionate about your job, and then after they hire you, you limit yourself to contractual obligations. It's that easy.

I wish someone wrote a "How to run a company ethically for dummies" book.

Because I want one

I doubt this actually happened because we all know our potential bosses are incredibly fragile when it comes to any traces of reality intruding on the bizarre bubble they’ve created for themselves. You’d lie through your teeth and say “I want to work somewhere that is like a family and I’ll work any amount of time until the job is done!”.

Truth to be told, the only good capitalist is a dead one. LinkedIn kinda proves it every day.

Yep, sounds like startups aren't for me!

If I want to work for next to nothing with little chance of it paying off, I'll just keep my real job and keep making my own videogames.

At least that's actually fun.
