Peter Appalled

We have all heard of the Peter Principle that employees continue to be promoted until they reach their level of incompetence, at which point they stagnate and adversely affect the entire corporate or institutional infrastructure.

Read all about it in my article today about the case of the Doctor who kept messing up and kept getting better jobs....
