Martin Fri, 09 Oct 2009 14:57:40 +0000 http://www.aharrisonbarnes.com/?p=5685#comment-6886 Too many employers/supervisors treat their people like something stuck to the bottom of their shoe. Human beings have no value, except for what they can contribute to the bottom line. I have worked for people who are so hung up on their own power, that they do not care whom they crush. I worked for a man who was a former Marine officer, and a Naval Academy graduate. Every day he beat us over the head, with how wonderful he was, and how privileged we were to be working for a man who graduated the Naval Academy. He stressed it was the Naval Acade ME! Supervisors and Employers do not care whom they screw. The man in the story just made his exploits more public than most.

I too thought that only people in big cities or on TV lived lives like the many you met. I just could never get around the fact that there are people out there who go to prostitutes! He is missing out on so much but is he really missing out? If he never experienced what is like to be in a fulfilling relationship, than he will never know what it is like and therefore not miss it. The problem is, it looks like he thinks of women as disposable objects to be thrown out when done with. I could not imagine seeing other people that way but so many are doing it in more than just this way. Maybe he is incapable of making a connection with a woman because he has to make so many connections with his work that he gets sick of it. Who knows. Some people are just different and I guess we have to accept that! I totally agree with many points in this article!
