why limit yourself when you can get a paycheck and enjoy your job at the same time? consider how many hours of your life you spend at work.

You people need to seriously improve your reading skills: I'm talking about how absurd is "loving a company". You can enjoy the job, of course, but "the company" isn't you friend nor your lover and never will be.

Exactly, you can love "working at a company" but to "love a company" you have to be brainwashed.

What about a small company? What if it's your own business and it only employs family? What if you are the only employee? It's okay to have an emotional stake in a business, just probably not when it's a megacorp you're on the lowest rung of.
