Rural Georgia colleges do regularly recruit kids from Atlanta to attend them, leading to a more black and urban character than you'd otherwise expect. This does allow many people who would otherwise not be college ready to catch up with remedial classes, as these schools largely just want to keep their dorms full. The price is of course bloated student loans these already underprivileged students get saddled with, but I think it is on balance a positive thing. The only alternative, under this system, is most rural colleges closing their doors.

When I worked delivery before the app era (think Uber eats but before it existed) I knew the people (almost exclusively women) that packed the to-go orders. At some places, ones that didn't get a lot of to-go orders, the MOD did the packing and that was fine. At others, it was a heavily politicked position. No one wanted to be the person that did these, as it was untipped, so everyone was against each other. At Texas Roadhouse specifically, it was the newest people and the subtext of more than one overheard conversation implied that those with a smaller chest had little-to-no chance of getting "on the floor" without "being cool and hanging out with (one of) the managers outside work". I don't want to read overmuch into that, but it made my skin crawl. I know there was no solidarity there though, the only people that got tipped out were the host and bartender, and those were essentially bribes.

America delenda est.

And that they are apparently too egotistical to let a mix engineer, producer, or master engineer fix it

Why expect the oppressed to play by better rules than their oppressors?
