Ms.Huxtable Posted August 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Well folks, I appreciate the kind vibes, but unfortunately it seems that the hiring manager was too intimidated by my great looks and found I was much to qualified for the position (that's what I keep telling myself anyway).Maybe next time.Shucks.

Douglas Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 sorry Shammie...Actually, I'm not sorry because for such a wonderful person, this just means that something bigger and better is waiting for you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Sorry too, Sharon; I think Kaidy Mae's right - think of this as the universe's way of telling you there's something better being lined up. In the meantime, FbtS's advice sounds ok too. Maybe you shouldn't be doing the job you do now so well. What's that principle that dictates that people get promoted to their place of maximum incompetence (that's how it seems to work in the academic world, certainly)? An old professor of mine here at U of T used to argue that you needed to meet two of three criteria to end up in positions of high administrative responsibility - you had to be lazy, incompetent, and/or drunk all the time. I've been working with that maxim for a while, though, and I'm still waiting for it to pay off . Seriously, though, it's still pretty shitty. You guys should get out tonight and do something completely distracting (there's a great firepit jam tonight in TO if you're in for the drive .

bradm Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 DEM, you're referring to The Peter Principle:In a Hierarchy Every Employee Tends to Rise to His Level of Incompetence.Aloha,Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Evil_Mouse Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 Thought that was it. I always figured it had something to do with St. Peter, though, which makes all sorts of theological and institutional sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timouse Posted August 27, 2005 Report Share Posted August 27, 2005 i think i prefer the Dilbert Principle. The Dilbert Principle refers to a 1990s satirical theory stating that companies should promote their worst employees to managerial positions so as to prevent them from directly affecting the consumer's experience. sharon, in your situation, this means that you are in fact much too nice of a person and far too good at what you do to be promoted to the snake-pit of incompetent management Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
