I was just practicing my skills by applying for jobs and the first website I tried accepted me souly because of my knowledge of films and specifically, superheroes. The idea that the world runs on what grades you have is silly, and I've proved it wrong multiple times in my own life, not looking at the many other examples of people who sucseeded in their careers just because of a passion and desire for what they were doing. I certainly believe we have a step up above everyone else in the industry.

If you don't agree, how do you think it works? I'm not saying you can't get into it by accident, I support you there, but your case isn't the majority, most people find it very hard to pursue such dreams, and I'm glad you happened to have that chance, but you wouldn't have never lasted if you didn't have talent and skills at the very least, that's what I'm trying to say. :)
