This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Organizations don't get big from kindness.

Red cross, EPA, and FDA are all large organizations imo. Definitely outliers, but theyy do exist and I wouldn't consider it ethical to take their money without working.

I would absolutely consider it ethical to take money from the american red cross without working.

The thread you are replying to is discussing whether or not it can ever be more ethical to not slack off at work while working for a large organization.

Given that context, your comment can be taken as you saying there is no such large organization that is more ethical to not slack off at work for, as there is no large organization that is kind.

I am providing examples of large organizations that I find more ethical to not slack off while working for. I was not trying to provide examples of large organizations that are kind.
