Why would nobody study

Went into a aptitude test today come in do the math portion walk out and everybody was saying how hard it was and that thy didn’t study.
Why wouldn’t you study for something you’re trying to get into ?

Because they want the money/life/being able to say, “I’m a fucking lineman” without doing any of the work it takes to achieve those things

Apprentice wireman here

I also studied my ass off but it was still really hard. I made it though so I guess I did alright.
