Thank you for this incredibly rational take.

What I personally have changed to is judging people for being gung ho about a company, happy with what the company is doing, or are they just there as a job. If you're in accounting and you just loooove working for Amazon and think they do no wrong, then yes I judge a lot

This. I'll usually get along fine with my fellow working class folks in the trenches wherever I end up, and I'll make friends with the cool managers even if they're managers.

Few people are excited to be forced into a corrupt and awful system to justify their existence.

But more often than not, they're the True Believers(TM) that are so utterly brain-warped into thinking some job actually cares about them, and make it part of their identity to "represent the brand". I give these simps a wiiiide berth.

When it's a grunt employee with that mindset, it's even more pathetic.
