I had a chat with a recruiter about a job at an interesting place yesterday. It's a tyre company she described as a 'christian' business. I know the brethren are a weird christianity offshoot and like to run their own businesses in safe industries.

A tyre place back home is owned by the brethren, so maybe it's the same deal with this place. I wouldn't work there, but I'd almost prefer the transparency of going to work at a place where you're expected to act proper around your weird bosses instead of the modern places insisting everyone be friends and not being sure where the boundaries are.

Yeah my response would be "the fuck has religion got to do with tyres"
