I come to work to collect a paycheck. What does pride have to do with showing up for work?
I don't know why this quote shocks me so much...but I can't imagine showing up to work without any pride. It's like saying, What does honesty have to do with honor.

I completely agree with MiAAmi, the paycheck and the time off is all that matters. I don't take any pride in the job I do or the company I work for. This is not the same job I started out in. I don't know why people are shocked by the above statements, I know alot of people in other industries also that feel the same way. This isn't our parents generation where pride in your career was earned by the company, the reality is, todays corporations couldn't care less about their workers but solely about the bottom line, no matter what. It is a 2 way street. If you do feel pride working here, that's great. I would never fault you for that.
