(1) Don't take jobs where the company isn't willing to
tell you what you'll be working on. That usually means
you're going to be allocated to the least desirable
projects.
I passed on a job at Google precisely because of this fear. I wonder if they've since changed that practice. F-35 lacks the F-16's agility in the air-to-air mode and
the F-15E's range and payload in the bombing mode, and it
can't even begin to compare to the A-10 at low-altitude
close air support for troops engaged in combat.
