This one really resonated with me... good luck with the job applications!

Some thoughts:

Hierarchies are necessary to organise people to optimally achieve a goal. In an ideal meritocracy, the most capable leaders bubble to the top and in turn enable those below them to achieve far more than they ever could alone.

Modern liberalism claims we have no collective goals and should therefore shun such an oppresive structure. That may be true for now, but not in war, famine, or times of crisis. Until such time arises, we can continue to sit and think about these things.

What a struggle with finding employment. Hope you get that perfect opportunity Jeremy. Maybe even the canteen serves hot chocolate.
