Trying to change job here to avoid taking part in this buffoonery.
I can't. Nowadays so much jobs are regulated per diploma/certifications that it is hard beginning again and regain while "older" the momentum for credibility.
The funny part I see breadmakers, cooks, construction is also suffering the same problem. I am currently in France, restaurants for average people are so bad, they do stuff that intoxicate people. I can do bread, cooking, fixing bikes and I do better than "pro" nowadays" without a diploma in their field.
Something systemic seems to be going on. Like people are just taught to execute and required to obey, and bosses don't know the craft of the people they should lead.
Basically being a boss boils down to the capital you can have, and competition seems rigged in favour of people being born wealthy.
I don't think that birth merit outweight a sane competition.
I find the Figaro monolog that inspired French and US revolution about the old monarchic regimes to be very actual.
Weirdly enough author's right says it should be in public domain, but it is impossible to find a link to this essay that is very actual.
- pferde 10y agoThe systemic thing is called "professional managers". In the past, only people "from the trenches" were promoted to manage and lead others. Nowadays, we have managers who studied nothing but management. And it shows.
- SFJulie 10y agoKarl Marx analysis was that through education you can capture the praxis (savoir faire) and transform it into both stealing it from the craftsman and also making expert in doxein (savoir faire) that knows nothing (Donning Kruger effect). I think that it has always fueled my intuition that a profession should be defined by the craftsmanship and not he education.
