You don't get it. And, frankly, you sound like someone who played junior high football 10 years ago and is claiming that you're just a set of cleats away from playing for an 0-4 NFL team.

There are lots of people willing to do those jobs for a lot less money. The problem is that no one in a position to hire such people trusts the "lot less money" folks.

Instead, they hire the few folks who have demonstrated success on the ladder up to those jobs.

If you think that's easy, go for it and turn down the big bucks when it's offered.

This is all above my pay grade. But when I'm evaluating an argument, I tend to discredit folks who say that their opponent is "like" something stupid, rather than taking a position and defending it.
