I perceive office politicers often forge ahead of the truly skilled, professional, and knowledgeable employee. This is happening to my husband. He is BRILLIANT. The Politiker is a jug-head. My husband keeps his head low, mouth shut, and does his job, and does it well. He is just the guy that everyone likes, but he does not bring gifts to the boss; he does not BS around him - he gets the job done! He is not political, doesn't have an agenda; and believes in always doing more than expected. Unfortunately, he has experienced promotion passes over past 5 yrs, and he is terribly upset. I know the person who forged ahead of him, and this guy is a freaking politicer (or is it politiker?) from hell. This guy has a BA in English from a crazy po-dunk school in Alabama (no offense folks from that area, but....???); my husband has BS and Masters from top 10 University. Other great things, but can somene explain why politics always wins over quality?
