The only thing we own is our integrity. No amount of work or income warrants sacrificing who you are and what you stand for. There will always be another gig. And turning down a gig because of poorly written copy or even bad copy has nothing to do with morals.

I was a tour guide at Universal making close to minimum wage when I made the decision that my ideals didn't have a price tag.

But everyone has to do what's right for them.
