^ While funny who the hell took the time to set up that Twitter account? Is it automated or is somebody copying and pasting 24K posts? Because that's wild. Also what did RJ do this time to get banned? Can somebody at least tell me the thread to check out.
Before that though I read back through the last 100 or so posts that I missed and enjoyed the nuanced and balanced conversation. To add my anecdote; I'm 34, started working full time at 22 and have spent 6 years working in both the private and public sectors. From my experience "workers" from both sectors are largely the same. Some work hard, some don't. Some care about their jobs and career advancement, some don't. Most are overeducated in the liberal arts sense, but undereducated in the skills needed to succeed in their vocation. The myth that private sector employees are more efficient or productive is ludicrous.
I mean Christ look at these message boards, whats the percentage of people on here who post during working hours who are privately or publicly employed? 75/25, 80/20? I know that I actually post far less at work as a teacher than I did when I sat at a desk and look at spreadsheets or whatever all day. Mainly because during 3/4 of my day I'm actually interacting and working with students, not just staring at a screen and figuring out how to stretch 2-3 hours of work into 7-8 hours.
