Heh heh. When I used to work in industry I’d get young engineers right out of college who would complain about how this high-school educated assemblers (all women, some minorities) wouldn’t do things the way he wanted.

The sad thing is the kids graduating with Navel Gazing Studies degrees today are probably far worse.
