Stop using people’s work history at menial Jobs as way to attack them. Aoc was a bartender. All you’re doing is being an elitist.
His past work as a gardener or grocery store worker shouldn’t be the headline here. Looking down at the working class is a dick move no matter who you are.
I’m sure this guy has plenty of stupid and his leanings aren’t good. But don’t attack him for being working class
I would not hire this person as a repair technician based on that resume. Am I discriminating? Yes, in the same sense that all hiring discriminates for skills and experience.
I would never hire someone like this for risk analysis, risk abatement, or political communications.
How is this not completely fucking obvious to everyone?
I mean being 22 and having that work history is pretty relevant. How else are they going to make the case that he’s nowhere near qualified enough for the position?
If he were the assistant director, or anything that’s not a key leadership role, that might be true. But an agency head should have an appropriate resume and experience.
Exactly. And if he’s 22 now, 5 years ago he was 17. Lots of teenagers have menial jobs in high school to get some cash. There’s nothing wrong with that.
There’s nothing wrong with having absolutely zero experience with something and then becoming in charge of it for one of the largest countries on earth?

Context is key. Those jobs are his only qualifications.
Unless that’s his entire CV because at 22 yo, because what could he have done to merit such a critical role in the government?
All work dignifies but not all work prepares you for nation impacting decisions.

Thats really not the issue here and if you don’t get that then I don’t know how to help you.
Then why is it the headline?
Because it’s The Daily Beast and they suck.
