Amen. Why should I be less good just because lots of other people suck?

Agreed. I enjoy that I confused “because of” with “because have” in my own example tho

Hah! I mightn’t’ve thought enough about that example, probably because of a lack of sleep.

I don’t know if shouldn’t’ve is grammatically correct but I hear it a lot so it seems like fair play. Same for other contractions that I never see in text, possibly because they’re wrong. Because’ve. He’d’ve.

Also like I’ma which can’t possibly be ok, but “I am going to” is for suckers.

Indiana. We’d fail so hard and so fast that I literally cannot imagine it. People are nuts. It’d be instant MAGA-flavored Mad Max if they felt like they had an excuse to preemptively defend themselves with their guns across the countryside.

Oh, to be as famous as wood

The replies here are disappointing but not surprising. If you willfully cross your moral boundaries, those aren’t your moral boundaries.

It’s not fair you should have to make this choice and I don’t believe you deserve the negative consequences of standing by your morals in this situation, but reality doesn’t care about any of that. You still have to make the choice and you still have to deal with the outcome.

No way in hell would I break my own code of ethics for an employer. I’ve said no before and I will again. Sometimes that costs me financially. I feel for you.
