Subject: Re: Where we're going from here
I don’t know what “fair” is in terms of monetary compensation. I always thought it was a little more than what I was paid. :)

I do know some one whose only qualities are they’re reliable and work hard—that person has never had more opportunities for employment.

Now add on to that a little education or a little skill—and the pay rises.

But if you expect to monetize a $250,000 degree in liberal arts and expect your next employer to subsidize your crazy education consumption, that’s not happening. And if your “skill” was roping clients into 1% annual wrap fees—a free AI app can now replace your alleged “skill”. So I understand the anxiety here.
