Thank you. Others took it so personally.

Your observation is spot on.



No problem, I have the same question. I'd like to know if it's "old people can't be good at the job" or "we can't afford experienced people". In my experience, it's more the latter.


Old people can be good. But young people are more likely to be hungry/ambitious and take ownership, which (at least has the appearance of) produces more/better outcomes.
