re: Before everyone blows their wad over missing on the DTs

Guessing these folks can’t relate, but you are spot on. Bring an engineer right out of college on at $15K/yr more than the engineer that’s worked for you for 3 years. 3 year engineer is going to have their resume circulating the following week. Salary compression is a very big deal, and then bring that into a locker room full of ultra competitive kids that have been hyped for their entire lives, and it’s a thousand times worse.

ETA: and this isn’t to even mention Mom’s, siblings, and handlers, that all want a piece of the take, and it’s gas on a fire.
