reading the life stories of guys who came up in the 50s-70s is like a window into a different world. a lot of them were lucky in that they met the right people at the right time who gave them the right opportunities, but since then an entire system has been developed to make sure men like that are stuck working night shift at a gas station instead of revolutionizing an industry

@deprecated_ii you will suck up to your third world boss and get shouted down by the third worlder boss above him instead of pointing out obvious design flaws.

"What happened to genius?"Nothing, the dude is working second shift at Costco and spends all his free time listening to DeBussy while playing Factorio instead of getting a free ride to MIT.

@deprecated_ii Talked to a somewhat decent boomer today, and he was talking about how a chiropractor friend t​aught him all the tricks so he could help out during busy season. He laughed, and said it was before all the laws that force you to have a degree now. Same guy has talked about all the trades he's just walked onto and been trained in, boilers, roofing, lapidary, various manufacturing and machining; not to mention his time in the army as a marksman. It's almost comical how simple it was for a bright and determined White man to get an in and high level training in crucial and lucrative fields compared to today. He's at least willing and happy to teach as he's been taught, but he's still got the "kids just want $20/hr and don't want to work hard" streak. Willing to admit additional factors though, even if he won't finger anyone other than "billionaires" for the issues.

@deprecated_iiCurrently working night shift at a gas station. While I don't think I would be revolutionizing an industry, I would be putting effort into making durable goods.

@deprecated_ii There were a lot more right people & right times floating around out there back then. Society was still more personal, less overmanaged, more opportunities were everywhere, all the wealth hadn't been pumped out of the lower levels of society like it has been now, etc. Also white men still ran most everything.

@JedKron1248 @deprecated_ii Chiropractic isn't exactly the greatest example of a professional field.

@Pawlicker @deprecated_ii "you will suck up to your third world boss and get shouted down by the third worlder boss above him instead of pointing out obvious design flaws."And because of that, ZOG is now a paper tiger.https://www.military.com/daily-news/2021/01/06/minuteman-iii-missiles-are-too-old-upgrade-anymore-stratcom-chief-says.htmlimage.png
