Corporate Evil

Dear Executive,

I know you work for some highly unpopular company with dubious ethical standards.  I know that your company is accused of benefitting the wealthy at the expense of the poor and middle class.  Yet every time I serve you I feel happy.  You are always respectful and courteous, you enjoy your meal, you drink bottles (emphasis on the plural) of expensive wine, and you tip generously.  Perhaps the company you represent is bad for society as a whole but you are far better for the economy of my industry than anyone occupying anything.  I hope you and the company you work for continue to flourish and patronize restaurants that employ me.  Long live the 1%.

Sincerely,
Your Waitress
