I have to stand up for Bob and his integrity. I respect that he would not voice what goes against his values. It's not a slam against others who will voice stuff he won't. I'm sure each of us who said we would not compromise our values in a VO have different sets of standards.

When I was 20, I used to voice adult content stuff. I'm a different person now, with different values, and would rather get out of VO altogether than voice adult content. But that's not to say I am on a "high horse" looking down on those who have no problem with that.

Connie won't voice mud slinging, Diane won't do what makes her throw up! :)
Bob won't voice political or Drug companies, others won't voice telemarketing or get rich scheme stuff.

This is just their personal values and no one should attack a person for their values. You may not agree with their values, everyone's values are different.

Given that, the question was about if you would voice what conflicts with YOUR values. I appreciate everyone's candor! I'm looking fwd to putting this ino in the VoiceOver Insider this month!
