My oldest son once got a job because he too was an Eagle Scout. I even got a job (I did not go to college) because I was a volunteer in Cub Scouts.
I am 72 and in later years I also discovered with all of my experience in accounting and other office positions, companies were more likely to hire younger candidates with no experience because they didn’t want to pay for the those with experience. I would have been willing to take the lower pay too, but wasn’t offered the opportunity.
The only point you might have missed (and maybe it isn’t that relevant in meteorology, is that many times it’s not what you know but who you know. I think that bothers me the most.
Again, great post and thanks for helping those who need to hear these things.
