Does HR have prior students working as TAs? Sorry, I’m confused as the post describes HR and Michael N here talks about Codesmith.

If someone asks "Anyone have experience selling apples?" and someone says "All fruit is a waste of time, no one can sell fruit successfully" and you know of an extremely successful orange seller... is it weird to say "I know a very successful orange seller that's a counter example to that statement"
When making a logical argument and stating "all", you need one counter example to disprove. And if you are choosing a counter example, why not choose the best one?
