When you got promoted...

[Wanescotting]

didn't someone in a leadership position tell you?
Poor kid at work just found out he got promoted via email. He was asked if he was "ready" a month ago, and he said no, which is correct, he needs to learn more on the financial side. I am leaving, and I was gonna help him get promoted. Oh well

I was told about 30 minutes ahead of time on my day off that I had to show up to work (while shit faced) to be promoted.

I've never been promoted. When I get hired they just make me the boss because they recognize that my superior intelligence and height make me perfectly suited for being in command.

You only think it doesn't work that way because you've never met me. Trust me, it works that way for schneiderguy.

I have to do the actually job for 6 - 12 months then get broken down over and over telling me why I am not ready until finally -- promotion. Then it does not get announced for 1 - 2 weeks to everyone else.

Your knowledge of comic books is superior to other comic book nerds for sure.

Same here. Have to be basically doing the job for a year prior to promotion. They tell us at our annual review (promotions only done once a year), then a week after all reviews are done a company wide email goes out announcing all promotions.
