Boss Music Starts Playing: The Scientific Ethics Difficulty Scale
The scientific moral compass goes from 0 to 100 real quick! Our protagonist starts with such noble intentions, rejecting the military-industrial complex with ethical conviction. Fast forward five minutes into the corporate world, and he's facing increasingly terrifying "boss battles" - first cutting corners on legal compliance, then confronting the final petroleum products boss (which apparently ate its Wheaties and steroids for breakfast). The meme perfectly captures the slippery slope of scientific ethics in industry, where idealism crashes headfirst into profit-driven reality. That petroleum monster didn't even need to offer health insurance to win this fight.

Ethics Leaving The Chat
Behold the classic ethical dilemma of engineering careers! That glowing soul leaving the body represents the exact moment when six-figure salaries vaporize those pesky moral objections about designing weapons. One minute you're all "I want to build sustainable infrastructure" and the next you're like "So this missile needs HOW MANY guidance systems?" Amazing how quickly principles dissolve when confronted with premium health insurance and a matching 401k. The defense industry knows exactly what they're doing with those compensation packages - turns out ethics are surprisingly affordable to purchase!

Principles For Sale
Nothing tests your environmental principles quite like a six-figure salary offer! One minute you're ranting about fossil fuels melting the ice caps, the next you're shopping for steel-toed boots and practicing your "drill, baby, drill" chant. The cognitive dissonance of condemning an industry Monday and updating your LinkedIn profile Tuesday is the true renewable energy source - it could power a small city. Turns out moral high ground doesn't pay the rent, but petroleum engineering certainly does!
