Industry cares for people

We did a team-building session at work. The team I was within had the following question?

-"What is the goal of TheCompany?"

It was easy

-"To make money."

It's private limited company operating in technological services. There is no other goal, there CANNOT be another goal.

It turned out there can be. There can be so many actually:

-"To provide jobs."

-"To advance careers in engineering."

-"To lead the engineering market in the kingdom."


I won't type the extended list, I already feel condescendant enough right now, no need to aggravate it.

I do believe Zeitgeist on rewatch for this night.

…So when you say “Industry cares for people”; that’s not true. They can’t afford to be ethical. Your system is not designed to serve the well being of people. If you still don’t understand that, there would be no outsourcing of jobs, if they care about people. Industry does not care. They only hire people ‘cause it hasn’t been automated YET.
