If you work for Autobots you only get to transform into cars. Up to you! |

Me Grimlock. Me Autobot too!
But seriously Decepticons for me. My favourite was always SoundWave. |

The autobots have a pension plan, but if you use the higher decepticon wages and invest carefully in energon cubes trust funds, you can do better in the long run. |

Thats a tough choice and im amazed how quick people are with their decisions.
This question deserves some serious thought and debate.
After all- transformers: more than meets the eye. |

I think a deceptacon would fit in a lot better here. |

Yeah but with the Decaptacons you know that no matter how hard you've worked - at the end of each working day you're going to get your ass whipped. No salary difference can compensate that. |

Yeah that may be true. But I bet if you're out on a Friday night and you tell a chick that you're a Deceptacon it's more than likely you won't be going home alone. Bad guys always get the hot girls. |

Being a woman, I'm looking for an employer that will provide me with equal laser blasting opportunities, was it the Autobots who had the pink transformer? |

I'd have to go Autobot. More freedom to do what you want...Besides, who would you want as your leader: a big, powerful mack truck or a gun (who is held by a friggin tape deck - you're telling me they don't have mp3's on Cyberton?!?).
Although it would be fun to be a bad@$$ and just want to kill things, the leadership sucks.

No I think you're thinking of the Machine Men which had a pink VW beetle. They're like the Xiang Yang equivalent of the Transformers |

Just to compare, would you rather be roadrunner or wylie coyotee? Different cartoons, but the same principle, namely one is consistantly the Winner, and one is consistantly the Loser. Who wants to get their ass kicked every day? It has got to be a better life on the Autobot camp, for sure!

Just as an aside, it is probably best if considering a job with the any transformer, that you always check the contract to make sure there is adequate cover for replacement body/automotive parts, weaponry etc, as it will be extremely expensive for you if you have to provide your own.  |

Also is it an expat package or local? esepecially are they relocating you from Cybertron?. With the traffic in Shanghai the way it is
I'm sure you'd be in the work shop quite often if you're an Autobot. |

Hmm... autobots seem to have bigger brains but deceptacons have better firepower... Bumblebee is kind of annoying & Dinobots have the smallest brain of all... on the other hand, Starscream is a sissy though Soundwave is always cool... I'll join autobots if I've Omega Supreme (he's the man!) in the team! |

There *was* a pink autobot. ArCee:
And she was HAWT. I might go with autobots just for the fact that they were co-ed. |

I haven't thought about it until now but how do Transformers breed? I don't remember seeing any of that going on when I was watching the show as a kid. I'm not sure that I want to think about all the weird stuff the pink autobot got up to with all the other male autobots. |

And what would you get if there was cross breeding ? an AutoCon or a DeceptaBot ? depends on who had the dominant gene. Given that there was only one female, there must've been a lot of rear bumper action in the Autobot camp. |
