When you're a 23-year-old making no money who finally got a foot in the door of your extremely competitive industry and really don't want to get screamed at or fired, your focus is on trying to get through the day.
The guy who is always available helps you do that.
But the new suffers for it.

Dear academic colleagues
Want to be humbled? Post a RA position for senior undergrad, MA students with coding and policy backgrounds. I dare you to qualify for the job at that level and yet I had more than a dozen qualified applicants

I’ll also note I am married to a man who has somehow never been accused of anything ever. So I shake my head at men who fear repercussions
In the heat of the #metoo movement i ppl i work with actually ask me, a boy mum, how I felt about the inequity of the movement. Men being publicly accused with no fair trial. I am now being asked similar questions about the Epstein dump. My answer is the same. No fear if you didn’t do anything ever
