Stick out a huge hand and pull someone out of the muck

Tim asks a very good question:
I wonder what % of the world population has been out of work at some point in their lives. Anyone know? 
If you’ve ever been in a job search, you are part of the crew. The community. And you understand the job search process. The hard work. The ups. The downs. 
And I’ll tell you something. I know a lot of people who aren’t a part of this crew. No job search on their resume. They are not part of the “in-crowd”. 
They don’t get it. 
In fact, those who’ve never been out of work are sometimes known as the employed elite. Complaining about someone having more than one job over the last five years. Asking stupid or impossible questions during a job interview. And having no patience for someone who is genuinely trying to deliver their best.
