I understand where you are coming from. Working as a chauffeur for their company, I found myself conflicted at times, but it taught me patience and allowed me to see (and hear) that their presentation as a company is different than some of their personal thoughts. It was a lesson in learning how to be professional, whether I agreed or not.And sometimes it was hard not to spout off, especially to those who thought their shit didn't stink. But, as I got more familiar with the job and their protocol it got easier.
