Hi,

I think you are right.. and wrong.

I think you are right when you say that working harder won't do. That's what your boss wants you to believe, but indeed, I think it is a lie. Just because working hard is never as rewarded as it should be. Because we are living in world in which being young and beautiful is much more important than being smart!

I also think you are wrong when you talk about luck. Because your boss (and those of very large companies) are perfectly aware that they are in such position thanks to their luck. So they tend to close their network, to make golden paths that lead to domination... and are completely unaccessible for anyone out of their private "leading sphere".

I hope this can change. But I think this only way it may change is that we fight. We will never get a fairer situation if we are not ready to fight for it.
And I think this is true in all countries, no matter their GDP!
