Overheard a gen-ed teacher in the lunchroom saying, "Special ed kids slow everyone down." I wanted to rage-scream but knew it'd be pointless. How do you handle these moments?

I can really use some direction. My background, I've worked 2 years in strategy and am currently coming off an exhausting year 2 in investment banking.

Everybody says there's exit-ops aplenty, but I find myself with less options and even more picky than I did as an ambitious T2 undergrad student. Where do I go from here?
