Workers, work and managers meet. In the corp I work for it seems that only those that can keep their mouth shut and are super politically correct (absurdly so) move up.
I really like my postition so I really have no complaints, but when I look at all the meetings my manager and director are in all day long and back to back, to back, it just doesn't seem like fun to me at all.
I always liked the saying "They rise to the level of their incompetence".
