I can say 1st hand that the happiest days of my professional life was while working for what I thought was a charitable company. After an investigation (which I gladly testified during) it was discovered that most of the money that was supposedly being put towards charity was really just funding the owners' needs. I was crushed.Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

I think this is complete bullsh*t. What kind of people (often) get put on these type of public relations "side-projects" of major companies? Well, the person is likely a slick, connected synchophant, likely strong on "surface" qualities but not necessarily on substance. We'll call him/her person A. Person A loves these projects. It provides opportunities for networking and sucking up and, also, to get out of the office and "fudge" how long certain endeavors take (i.e. "f*ck around time). Now, let's take another person. We'll call him or her Person B. Person B is an "everyman" just making enough to help keep the family afloat. Person B sees Person A types, with their slick clothes, shallow grins, and stinky brown noses getting away with murder. It's a big circle of cronyism and self--congratulation; they use up an inordinate amount of company time and resources while coming down mercilessly on any of the "commoners" wlho dare waste any time or resources. Of course, person B hates their guts. He or she dreams of them burning alive in an office fire. With good reason. In any case, who represents the company when speaking with the media, a person A type. So, shallow weasel from Company X has shady reporter from newspaper Y over to some "charity announcement" soiree where they give each other metaphorical hand jobs over how great being a narcissistic suck-up is and these unquestioning, absurd kind of stories are the result.
