One place I KNOW I wouldn't work, that I'd dig latines first, is for the
drug company that manufactured and marketed the Phen Fen (or is it the
other way around?) sh...er...crap that promised easy weight loss. The
company KNEW this crap had the potential to cause health problems or
even kill its victims.
My sister-in-law is dying because of those diet pills. The settlement
from the company won't give her back her life, just make her dying more
comfortable. When I invest in mutual funds, I check the portfolio to
make sure that company is not included. I will not knowingly do ANYTHING
to help that company.
