What is a Normal Yes/No Percentage When Asking a Girl Out?

Average guy, around 200 asks for one yes. Below average, 500:1. Top 10% guy, ~3:1.

Being a guy generally means a lot lot lot lot lot of rejection.

why do people hate vegans so much?

Have you ever met one? About 90% of them are huge assholes. It’s like because they think they are (fake) virtuous in one area, it gives them carte blanche to be mega-jerks everywhere else. And, relatedly, they are almost all sanctimonious pricks.

The best argument against veganism is vegans themselves.

Sick and tired of this silo crap.

It’s not all silo crap. It’s the younger level of techs simply has not had the ability to learn to troubleshoot. Most of them did not grow up with computers (if they are ~35 or below) and just have too little experience to be effective. Sure, you can learn, but it takes time.

Techs in my age range and older often started troubleshooting compy shit from age 5-10 and so by the time we hit the workforce we had years of experience already to build from and on. The techs now have only drooled in front of tablets and often haven’t used a real computer before getting into IT, which they only entered because it pays well.

I know that “anyone can do anything” liberals hate it, but the reality is that someone who has used a computer since an early age and has had to make it work for 10 years is gonna be way more effective than someone who has done three months of A+ training and that’s it. That’s actual life and not the dreamworld some people want to live in.

Modern younger (which these mostly would be) techs cannot troubleshoot a goddamn thing in my experience. I often solve problems in minutes that lower-level techs have been working on for weeks or months (and in one case, years).
