detlef Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Imagine if you had a very, very high profile job that you were leaving in a few months. There are two guys fighting to take your spot. One guy's main arguments why he should get the job is that the other dude is just like you and the other guy's main argument is "the hell I am!" Every time you address the company, everyone looking at you knows this is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Country Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Even more sad is that one is the crotchety old security guard and the other is the new mailroom clerk. And both are more qualified....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
detlef Posted October 17, 2008 Author Share Posted October 17, 2008 Even more sad is that one is the crotchety old security guard and the other is the new mailroom clerk. And that it is widely held by pretty much everyone that both are about 10x smarter than you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moneymakers Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 I claim media bias and downright racism. Ever hear one of them say Pakistan. Nobody ever says anything about that. But say Nuclear a tad bit different and you get a F in English. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TimC Posted October 20, 2008 Share Posted October 20, 2008 Imagine if your Company stole, ummm borrowed confiscated trillions of dollars from your customers every year and could do anything with the money they desired and they use it for army men and old people and make excuses why they can't provide your healthcare every year, but if one of their customers gets in really big trouble, they instantly write them a check large enough to pay each employee's healthcare a few times over.
