   Yes,it is apparent you don't understand.   
      
   People who regard their life as their own should avoid caving in to   
   the unreasonable demands of others.   
      
   If forced by circumstances to submit to indignity and outrageous   
   intrusion, then submit, but regard your employer with the contempt he   
   deserves and give no commitment or loyalty. If it becomes possible to   
   shit on him from a great height, then by all means return to him the   
   compliment he gave you.   
      
   As for your forswearing of all intoxicants, it certainly put you in a   
   minority. But like you said, everyones choice is their own.
