Does having working experience as a gardener and as a grocery store assistant somehow, disqualify you from doing a , may I say, very straightforward job?
I am pretty sure he won't do all of that by himself, what would be the issue then? No enough experience?
Please, complain more later in other threads about how young people can't get a job because they are inexperienced
It's official, Lemmy is filled to the brim with conservative boomers larping as collectivists LMAO
Yup. That's the take. You're so 100% correct. No difference between the typical grievance about needing 15 year experience for a 10 year old system and a guy who had 2 part time entry level jobs running a department of a (for now) global super power.
I'm so glad you were so smart you could show how hypocritical it is. Cause they're the EXACT SAME situations.
Should this kid be able to get a job somewhere in that agency? Sure, maybe. Should they be leading a major government department with zero experience? Absolutely not.
Just like an alcoholic talking head shouldn’t be leading our defense department. Or a fucking WWE wife being anywhere near leading education for the country. This isn’t about qualifications. It’s about nepotism and grifting.
lololol k
They cry and cry and cry because you g kids aren't doing enough and then when one finally lands a great job they complain "NOOoO not like that!?"
