In today's world "Corporate Morality" has become an oxymoron, anything is excusable in the pursuit of revenue and profit targets and the emasculation of labour laws has condoned if not encouraged an explosion in employee abuse and exploitation.
Most of us cannot stand apart from this amoral cesspit, there are mouths to feed, bills to pay and dreams to fulfill, so how can we work and live inside this maelstrom and still maintain genuine integrity and live a happy fulfilling life.
