That explains it. You know there are incentives for your employer to hire vets, right? You’re a DEI hire.

You do realize that you’re glossing over the fact that yours is one of the few decently paying fields that allows entry without a degree or certification and doesn’t destroy your body, that everyone is different and technology skills are not some people’s strong suits, and that opportunities are not given equally, right?

Nah, probably not. This is called survivorship bias, and you’ve fallen into it hard.

It’s also an extremely long shot, isn’t it? Trying to convince people that old people won’t complain about things, and that they trust the government. That’s about as likely as trying to convince a Republican that they want a Tesla.

Our only saving grace is that they’re reeeally dumb sometimes.
