Sounds

A recent post over on Adfreak combined with the revelation that companies with DoD contracts are now basically exempt from standard SEC filings got me to thinking about all of the crappy corporate anthems I have heard over the years.

You know what I’m talking about. You work as some cubicle drone for mega global corporation and in order to further implant the idea in your head that the global mega corporation world is a better world and you are a worthless piece of shit they come up with a song to remind you each and every moment of the day. A song that they play in the elevators, on the phone, in the shitter. A song that those who have drank the Kool-Aid like to lip-sync or, even worse, sing, at every corporate outing, or when before you start you company-sponsored calisthenics routine in the morning.

A song that you hum to yourself as you look down forty floors to the traffic clogged streets below, pondering if it was all worth it.

Take heart, my friend. You are not alone.
