    I am familiar with that principle, yeah. it seems to me like it’s become more of a thing of the past. I definitely think that happened in the 60s and 70s (and we’re still dealing with the ramifications today) but I haven’t heard of any of my friends getting promoted at office jobs in years. it’s a younger and smaller sample size though so definitely possible both are at play

    Those who cannot achieve excellence stay put. Those who can achieve excellence find a place where they are allowed to.
