Have you ever been fired from your family? For some that analogy has happened, but for most people it's an exception, but for a job it's a much more real possibility. I'm a mercenary at my job. No allegiance but to my interests, because the leadership and shareholders have the same perspective

Are you responding to the parent comment? Do you not see how "I'm a mercenary" is as toxic as "I hustle 12 hours a day everyday"?
I don't see how it is toxic, no. It saves me from toxicity in fact. I get to live more freely and happily knowing my role clearly.
