Engineering Ethics Leave the Body

Text on the meme

My ENGINEERING ethics & morals leaving my body when that 250k a year Lockheed Martin job offer hits

What it means

An animated montage shows a pale figure’s spirit leaving his body, followed by a stylish blond man in sunglasses dancing and posing among glamorous anime characters. Set to “Heads Will Roll (A-Trak Remix)” by Yeah Yeah Yeahs, the clip jokes that a $250,000 Lockheed Martin offer instantly makes an engineer’s ethics and morals disappear. It is used as an absurd, self-deprecating reaction to compromising one’s principles for money.
