😂 these people have money, you don't get that by giving a fuck about other people. The right people? Sure. Everyone else? Eh.

You can climb a corporate ladder and make this money without hurting people. You can always help people at lower management levels and sometimes even senior manager levels or director levels make little impact. Attempts are made but often shut down or blown off.

I’m not saying a random middle manager couldn’t afford these clothes, but having a big enough house for this closet is not in their price range.

Real eastate prices have exploded, and the salaries are not following, unless you are a top executive.

I’m mid 30s now, and back when I started as an intern, the managers were living in big-ass houses with heated pools on some hillside, driving giant BMWs. By the time I got there, us managers are lucky to own a small apartment in the city or a crumbling house in the suburbs.

Corporate careers are not what they used to be, workers are exploited by capitalism everywhere, just to a diffetent extent.
