Amen. If the culture won't allow better, document what's there in all
it's absurdity and live to fight another day. No victories to be found
stamping your feet in a mealy middle ground. Get in, get out, or get
over it.
Be practical, and realistic. Shouting at earthly incongruities from
Jupiter is useless, humiliating, and avoidable. Be the dog or be the
tail but, regardless, cash the check. Make friends, suck it up, and win
the next one. It's a paycheck, not a crusade. Nobody's gonna die.
