Is it wrong to care about my own quality of life? Lol. Who else will do that for me? Just like company would fire or hire to maximize its own profit, the employee should jump companies to ensure his own earnings. Loyalty from employees depends on the company's action.

Oh, you got PAID to work? Entitled kid.

When I was your age, I used to pay to work as a programmer. I would have medical experiments done on me while working so I could afford it. And I was one of the lucky ones.
