Fun fact: I had a career in which I was in charge of hiring other people to fill the expanding roles in my department, and was tasked with hiring ‘more of myself’, but I was not allowed to even consider people with my own qualifications.

I was mostly self-taught, and was only allowed to consider people with at least a bachelor’s degree in a field that didn’t even really exist yet.

e: You can probably guess how that went.

We’ve already seen this in medical, with Dr Oz being promoted to a leadership position in the government. And now, since Measles has made a comeback, he’s floundering trying to get a pro-vaccine message out, since oh shit, it turns out traditional doctors who actually listened in med school instead of just paying professors off whilst doing bumps in the dorm room were actually right. Who’da thought?

It started with Nixon, though (arguably before, but not in pop-psy). Reagan should be the point of convergence.

Hey man, I’m busy. Future Me has way more time, and they’re already angry at me, so they can deal with it.

(JK… I’m pretty good at documenting my shit now.)

Thx. Looks like Facebook rage bait.
I left there a few years ago tho so maybe it’s changed?

Rage bait on inspirational backgrounds was a thing for a while, then i stopped looking forever.
