This is actually hilarious. You are trying so hard to sound educated.
Okay, I'll play your game:

What college or trade school did you graduate from, which degrees do you have, how many years of experience in your field do you have in the workforce, what career field are you currently in?

I have some college, no degrees, some certs (A+/copper cabling, worthless for the field i'm in), 5 years exp in my field, and I work in AAA game development.

Your move.

I started out with an associate degree in business with the community college because we grew up on food stamps and community housing. I then went and got an associate with ITT Tech for IT. I have had several certs from Microsoft provided by the Military. I'm retired.

They retire you from the Military for a brain injury by chance?

What relevance does that have to someone pointing out that you had a meltdown, needed to step away, and didn't?

You could be the most intelligent in your field and if you're lacking social interaction skills, you won't succeed.

If you had any semblance of experience, you'd know that careers and politics are about who you know, and not what you know, and certainly not what you believe in. Turns out they don't teach that in college.
Wise words here!
