sick of my job

I don't like my job. I don't like our customers. I don't like our company. I don't like our products. I don't like our suppliers. I think that this whole operation is just a big scam. There is no responsibility. This whole corporate world is a bunch of anti-social bastards.
The whole "green" or "environmentally friendly" thing is just a matter of communication and image. Nobody really cares about that. What they care about is 15% annual increase in their revenue. Year in, year out.
Now, how sustainable is that?!
How long can they keep on doing this? I'm sure we are in a recession right now, and I'm sure that what they're quietly discussing among themselves the manner to get back to the way things are.
What's crazy is that for the last thirty years, people have basically been brainwashed into believing that what they really need is to depend on credit to live the American dream. People can't really afford all of that shit. They put it on credit cards, and loans and financial products and stuff...
I'm so sick of my job, though. I hate the commute. I hate the people there. Rich spoiled bitches and brats.
