What are you on about? Where did I say that?

My point was: Saying "this is what worked for me finding a job in the 80's/90's" isn't necessarily great advice, because it's not the 80's or 90's. If an oldhead says "this is what worked for me last year" sounds like he's giving useful advice.

Put succinctly: Oldhead advice is great when it's relevant, but oldheads need to understand that not all their war stories are useful. Feels like an extremely reasonable take, but strawman me some more if that's what gets you off.

Signed- An oldhead!
