    One must always find the good in what is bad.
    Since the Great Recession the brightest students have been going into business and finance over law.

    Remember the Feminists also dubbed International Womens Day, as a Day without a Woman. Now that was just some sheer stupidity.

    Must have missed it. It does not sound like something that would catch my interest.

    I don't think they thought that one thru. Kids need their mothers. A Woman.

    Sounded like something AOC would come up with.

The other one cried when he didn’t get a big fancy office - after 1 year out. Yep, they’ve been hardened for this business.
    They are very entitled. They have been catered to like royalty their entire lives and believe that the education that they received is now a free pass - they just have to do the minimum and reap the rewards that prior generations had to really work for. The problem is that their familiarity with technology has been interpreted as greater intelligence and knowledge, but TBH to a Luddite any technical knowledge seems like magic. They are not that special. They were raised with technology. That's like revering those who learned to drive cars when they were first manufactured. I run circles around many millennials when it comes to technology. They know what they were taught but they are often incapable of teaching themselves (which I have done, all my life). That's the difference between knowing what you need to learn to do the job and assuming that you came out of school knowing everything there is to know.
    In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.

    My dad graduated with a degree in business. Yet taught himself chemistry and became the chief chemist for our local chemical plant. Then when he burned out on that he taught himself computers and code and ended up creating the first nationwide computer network for that company. He continued to work as a consultant after he retired.
