Many a job has been written with one individual in mind. Company rules may state that any position has to be opened for competition, but that doesn't stop the job qualifications to be so detailed that they could only fit one group or a group of persons...
It's like the left arm of Sammy Davis Jr: 'taint right and 'taint fair; but that's the way it is...
I love job requirements like these...

Re: I love job requirements like these...
LOL. Tough talk. And now three days later the majors are putting the brakes on ground schools and hiring. Times change indeed, and young kids' feelings might get hurt that no one is impressed by their resumes. Better hope you have a real secure seat if this lasts for any length of time kiddo.OneYonge wrote: ↑Tue Mar 10, 2020 9:15 am Well those people who just can’t cut it, get culled out pretty quickly don’t they. Kids have no idea, but you are right, they learn quick. If something is not for them, there are other ways to make money. Who cares? Good for them. Noone here is demanding anything. Folks are just getting info and making better decisions. Times change, and Old man feelings don’t need to get hurt that the next generation is no longer impressed by how “tough” the older generations are.

noone has ever been impressed by inexperience. it's a given.
what's not so obvious is old-timers who would actively create barriers just because they resent how young folks act.
there's already enough barriers to go around for everyone, and now we got a crazy bug so how about we all just be in the same team.
