Exactly my experience in ops as well across very different industries. Ops feels like a stain on my career at times, bizarrely. The past was no picnic, but I know there was better respect towards the workers in decades gone by. I remember a “how to get rich” book from back then talking about not hiring or contracting the absolute cheapest bid, believe it or not. It preached making sure your side of the deal didn’t come at an unfair cost to another side. Believe it or not. The long timers in LV who had worked in both the mob days and corporate america/modern had a strong preference for working for the mob. That should tell it all.
