9. They don't care and wouldn't if you told them this

All you've ever represented to the managerial class is too many dollars going out the door, not how many dollars your work has brought in to the company.

Come the revolution, every business school in the country should be razed and the grads all sent back for re education by the working class.

I'm sorry this happened to you. It's happened to me too.
