I take orders from no one, especially when said orders make no sense at all. I do things my way. If I have to blow things up to get the job done, so be it. if I have to kill to get the job done, so be it. My superiors couldn’t take such insubordination, so I got canned. As long as I am not stuck in the southern U.S., I’ll be fine.
