Top six jobs on Indeed, search query “office assistant” in Calgary, AB. Ctrl+F for “MS Office” or “Microsoft”. Can’t show you the one that wanted WordPerfect because it expired months ago and I didn’t save the link. Not to mention it would dox me.
Here are the results of searching “Linux sysadmin”, none of them requires MS Office experience but they all require Linux experience. Do you understand now why your comment is stupid?
Okay, so firstly, stupid != deceitful. Secondly, there’s absolutely no need for insults. Lastly, when a person says “office job” they generally don’t mean “Linux sysadmin.” They mean someone who writes documents all day or puts numbers into spreadsheets. And in the context of this conversation, it should be obvious that it’s referring specifically to those that use word processors or spreadsheet software. Furthermore, that link pulls up a whopping 4 jobs. That is not a good sample size, even if any of them did mention having to use a word processor, spreadsheet software, etc.
But hey, just accuse me of lying and stupidity. Not like there’s a person on the other side of your screen or anything.
Yep. 4 is a terrible sample size, I didn’t even look at the results since the point I was trying to make was about selection bias, which you seem to understand so I don’t know why you even thought posting the previous comment was a good idea.
I’ll apologize for calling your comment stupid, though. That was unnecessarily hostile of me and uncalled for.
