Having lived near the Des Moines International Airport, the name gag was a good laugh. (For those who don't know; there are no commercial passenger flights from Des Moines that leave the US, only a couple of cargo flights to Canada by UPS and FedEx and probably a handfull of charter operators who might on occasion.)

@@Werewolf_Korra I was on the other side near Valley Junction. Got out to the South Side a few times when I worked for the Post Office, though I mostly worked the East Side. Nice people there.
I've heard the "It's because 1 cargo flight per day goes to Canada" line several times from people, and I think it's likely bunk. UPS routes all their stuff through Louisville, and FedEx through Memphis. How could there possibly be enough mail going from Iowa to one specific part of Canada (it's huge) to justify a flight directly there from Des Moines? It is my understanding that "International" as a designation is d/t the runways being a certain length, having customs offices, etc. In other words, it is set up as able to have international flights, it doesn't nesc. mean it does. There may be some charters from time to time.
I took one of these in school and there were a ridiculous amount of questions about an interest in Farming and Agricultural Engineering. I spoke to people who took it other years and they had a similar experience with repetitive questions about other fields of work. My guess the government wants to plan ahead lmao
Yeah, turns out there's actually a lack of people in agriculture because the work is too bad for the pay for even illegal migrants to really 'want' to do it, so they have genuine problems getting people to stick around. Sure they could just pay people more, but then the profits wouldn't be as high as the company expects and nobody wants that! Gotta love American capitalism, right? Really wouldn't surprise me if one of those groups lobbied schools to be like "Hey... you can uhh... push kids to do this just a bit, right? We really need people right now. Not enough to pay them well, but still."
It's also really dumb. Like how would any student know they would enjoy farming work until they've done? I'm not advocating for children to do farm work, but my point is that children have no real world experience to be making decisions about jobs.
