  1. Their talent pool is 10,000% what od needed
  2. That does not affect them, as I said.
  3. That is impossible because of #1

I didn't say it was personally good for you, I said it wont affect that job getting filled. And it won't

No, what you said was that it didn't matter whether or not you took the job, because it would get done anyway. And that is a flawed argument.

I don’t work for them because I chose not to, but honestly, work for them, don’t work for them, it’s not like they’ll lack for employees. If you write that line of code that eventually blows up a hospital or someone else does, it will still happen. You’re not going to stop them by turning down job offers. You’re going to need to change politics.

No, I certainly did not. Kindly refrain from putting words in my mouth.

Oh do fuck off. That's the gist of what you said. I purposefully didn't put it in quotes because I was paraphrasing.

Go back and read it a few more times; it's not much above 5th-grade level, and you'll get it eventually.
