This wasn't a job, but a job interview. I was interviewing for a multimedia
CBT programming job at this small company. I was showing a demo disk of my
work to the company owner and her husband. There were a couple of intense
scenes in the demo taken from a law enforcement CBT I developed. The husband
wanted to see those scenes again. The company owner did not. They had a
really extreme argument in front of me. After a couple of minutes I got my
disk out of the laptop and left. That goodness I never accepted that job.

As a category however, defense contractors are probably the worse.
