I lost a job offer, way back, and I was told on the sly by a trusted insider it was a demographic issue.

It stings. I know my capabilities and the post was a dream job that suited my positives perfectly. And I lost it because I was the wrong sex/race/ability/whatever.

but even in the pit of my own trivial self-pity I'm not gonna revenge-vote for people who'll fuck everything else up just so snowflakes like me don't need to feel that sting. I'm a grown-ass adult with only moderate entitlement.

The math doesn't work. I'm a big fan of jobs going to the most qualified, period, but this is a baby/bathwater thing and it's just not worth it.
