I’m using it as an example to express disappointment in government after government. An obviously self deprecating example at that. Did you bother to read it? Certainly not bragging, Jesus.

I read it and that's how it came off to me, so sorry if I mischaracterized your thoughts. I guess when you said:

When I was in high school I told my dad, and friends, outright that I wasn’t going to follow in his footsteps. I recall saying “there is no way the industry will be the same when I’m mid career age”. That was 21 years ago.
Me, the guy who barely passed high school. I, who then went back to improve my highschool classes and barely passed that (and failed one). Because, I’m not an overly intelligent individual. That’s how ####ing obvious this has been for 20+ years. But no, everyone I’ve ever known who works in the industry is hard against any change, and throws money around like they’re in a rap video. People who’s job it is to ensure money is flowing in the province either ignored the obvious, or straight up couldn’t understand that things would change.

It came across as "I told you so" and didn't really imply any empathy for people today.
