I have a 6yr degree in business mgmt and minimal lathe machining experience. Can i tell you how to do your job?

Seriously i think your mentality may be holding you back. Be positive about changes. Any opportunity can be an opportunity to grow.

I used to hate to have to do drills at practice with a less advanced teammate/ or uncoordinated freshman. But my coach told me one day that if i couldnt work with a less advanced person and become better myself while improving their skill that i would not deserve a varsity position.

Needless to say. I was a reliable bench warmer. If your not open to someone elses critical insights, well, you either have it all figured out, or you have reached a level of omnipotence on par with Trumpilstiltskin.

I hope I didn't come off as a know it all. I realize I will be learning until the day I leave this trade, even if that is 60 years from now. I really don't mind someone being hired above me. My biggest gripe about this is that my experience counts for nothing and I'm denied any chance for advancement while someone with almost no real experience is granted the opportunity to advance as far as they would like simply because they got a degree even if it's in a completely unrelated field. Being tasked with training my superior will be irritating. You make good points on attitude and I'll have to work on that. Frankly I don't have much of a choice.

I wouldn't feel so insulted if I was just able to throw my hat in the ring. Nearly a decade of experience at this exact company should have some value associated with it. I have always gotten stellar reviews, have welcomed more responsibility without the pay increases, have trained many of the employees here, and yet now they tell me I should stay quiet and know my place as a blue collar peasant....that is until I go get a degree in feminist studies or anthropology.

I guess the position pays the same as what I'm making now so it has nothing to do with money.

There's always extremists no matter the issue. Being a feminist doesn't have to mean what you are thinking.
