There's a ton of "good ole boy" shite in Louisiana.

It's hard to break into careers etc without knowing ppl and shite.

That's a huge part of why Louisiana is so overwhelmingly populated with native born.


This, have an upvote sir.

Thanks.
I wasn't native born.
Was in Louisiana for school.
Upon grad I struggled.
Couldn't get good job.

I'd apply with the same company in Louisiana and Texas.
Texas brings me for interview.
Louisiana I don't even get a call.
Happened multiple times.

One company I applied with. I had grad degree in field. 1 year industrial experience.
No interview.
Ended up with same company out of state.
Find out guy they hired had lesser educational credentials.
Zero relevant job experience.
But, he was a managers god son.

Just so many glaring examples of ridiculous nepotism. Lots of people in Louisiana don't even try to hide it.

I work in chemicals.
In Texas very few people are related to others at the same company.
With operators you see it some.
But, at Louisiana sites it's crazy. Everyone seems to be related. Or, somebody "got them on".
