My cousin was in a fraternity. They had an alumni event where the old boomers would come down and talk with the younger guys.
Apparently one boomer who's the rich finance guy openly said to two guys: "Now I'm going to offer the job to your friend here, and this is a learning experience. I'm giving him the job because I like him, and he's better looking. You clearly work much harder than him and know more, it's very obvious... but he's good looking and I like talking to him. This is learning experiene to show you life isn't always fair and even though this guy worked half as hard as you and probably spent his college getting girls more than studying, he still is getting the job that you desperately want, and he doesn't even want it that bad, this is a learning experience"
I'm paraphrasing but the boomer only thought he was being some honoest philosopher who was cool for not sugarcoating his words, when in reality he was being a giant dickhead.
