My guest Eamonn is a 38 yr old male from mixed heritage. His father is white European and his mother is from Far East Asia - but he's never spent a significant amount of time in either of their countries as his dad's work kept the family in the Middle East. He moved back to the UK for University and after a brief period living back in Qatar with his parents, decided to move to the UK full-time. This move took him to Scotland and the oil & gas industry.
Eamonn and I talk about unwritten guy codes, biases that can't be ignored, the rigid nature of careers and the line of an easy life that has been sold to us.
The Myth of Meritocracy
