It's not enough to get a job, no.

I am not a good fit for companies, and I know it.

I was just refuting the article.

This isn't what "refute" means! Your situation does not contradict the article's claim. It's orthogonal.

Well, not exactly. The article had an implicit bent that standing out is a good thing. That's what I'm refuting.

Pretty clearly, the article means standing out through creativity and work product is a good thing. Not by being angry and whiny.
