Baldo by Hector D. Cantú and Carlos Castellanos for December 10, 2008
Transcript:
Dad: Baldo: these things happen. Baldo: But dad, I don't deserve to be squashed like this! Baldo: I work way harder than Joey! Why does he get promoted?! Dad: I would say "life's not fair," but I think you know that. Baldo: What?! Life's not fair?! You've never told me that before! Dad: No? Well... uh... Baldo: Why don't you tell me these things!!
Regarding the discussion a couple days ago about the Peter Principle:
It doesn’t say that the least competent person is promoted or that businesses try to find the job at which a person is least competent. It says they promote the MOST competent person UNTIL they become incompetent. The Peter Principle assured you that even though your boss was an idiot, (s)he used to be able to do something. Just for the record.
