[Dilbert San Diego]

I’ve often wondered that, with a degree in economics from Boston University, and being a “woman of color” as they say, she should have been a prime candidate for jobs besides being a bartender. Her background seems very strange that way.

Is she one of these people who rejects “Corporate America” so didn’t want some job in the business world? But in that case, wouldn’t she have had some jobs in non profits or other organizations that are doing some sort of charitable functions????

Yes, I have wondered too, how a theoretically well educated college grad, a woman and a minority, would be a bartender.

You raise an interesting point. There is no shortage of government and non-profit jobs (i.e., sinecures) she could have gotten into with little effort or evidence of useful skills. I suspect they may not have been ‘cool’ enough to lure her.

She’s a huge narcissist. I doubt she would be happy as a faceless 9 to 5 drone in some kind of obscure bureaucracy having to stare at numbers and endless memos. More fun being a flashy bartender with lots of eyes on her. JMHO

“Yes, I have wondered too, how a theoretically well educated college grad”

Whether current colleges are “educating well” is debatable. And could be part of the problem why she had to become a bartender. Anymore if you swear loyalty to the communist party you can just buy, or get a grant to buy a piece of paper. Actually being educated is irrelevant and not the end goal. Being politically correct and successfully indoctrinated is the true end goal.

Having worked in New Yorkers for a long time, I’d say this is a pretty good summary of her background and capabilities:

1. She’s not stupid; probably has an above-average IQ.
2. She was raised in circumstances where mediocrity was the norm — from the NYC school system to the affluent suburbs of Westchester County.
3. Her above-average intelligence is more than offset by a crippling ignorance and intellectual laziness that carried her into adulthood. These two characteristics make her seem like one of the dumbest people on the planet who aren’t disabled enough to qualify for the Special Olympics. I suspect she was raised with an unhealthy daily dose of television, which progressed to brain-damaging social media in adulthood.
4. None of the impairments described in #3 prevented her from getting a “woman of color” admission to Boston University.
5. She graduated from Boston University despite the fact that she was never educated … because BU is a highly overrated school.
