My little brother works in the meat industry -- in a slaughterhouse. He loves animals, but he actually enjoys his job. Strange, I know. I'm just happy he's found full-time work he's contented with. He was a very troubled kid.

Anyway, after he had been at his job for a few months, he asked to be transferred to the cattle area because he couldn't handle killing pigs. They seemed so intelligent to him and he felt like he was killing a dog... and he loves dogs. He won't eat pork anymore after having worked with pigs. He's okay with beef though.
