Job based rant.
Having a little honest respect is obviously no longer part of the work environment.
That was something I really did enjoy about my military career. There was respect for those who worked. Sure, we had some kiss-asses and wiffle-dicks, but we dealt with them! They got farmed out to some bullshit job on the fringes.
I guess the hierarchy was developed on ability if that makes sense. When I retired I still worked with military guys because of what I did.
Now I am fortunately retarded and don't have to deal with it at all!
