[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m an over achiever graduate of hard knocks university who works with high achievers from Ivys (@ a MBB)

I am jealous they had Uber Black lives and I had Uber Pool … on one hand we’re now at the same destination but on the other it would have been nice to have an easier ride here and [b]that line on my resume that always guaranteed it was read.[/b]

The truth is, it is somewhat soul crushing to realize that the doors really aren’t open to everyone. [b]You can scan this thread and see that the C suite isn’t achievable to the best candidate because the best candidate never gets selected [/b]to even work in strategy, let alone work in the ladder to the top. Achieving, keeping and advancing in this top consulting firm I now have a possible future here but I’m a rare breakout example

My college roommates and friends are my soulmates but they aren’t famous or connected and that’s great - I love them and they make my life richer decades after graduation. [/quote]

The problem is things like the bolded are not true. They are like these DCUM myths that may have had a small sliver of truth at some point but people here (erroneously) believe them to be factual statements of how the world works.[/quote]

I appreciate you

Maybe at the end of the day it’s just that you’re able to play the hand you’re dealt.
