    They have other skills you don’t have, that are more important for those high paying jobs.

    Like faking genuine interest in the shit their higher-ups blather on about, convincingly laughing at racist and misogynist jokes, backstabbing their peers when a position opens up, and doing the most demeaning tasks with a smile and a “thank you”.

      I thought you’d go a different route and I was ready to fight. But yes. This sums it up pretty well. I quit my last job with a (roughly translated) “you’re an idiot, go fuck yourself. I’m polishing up my vita” and it was SO great.
