Haha....yep! They fail to understand that they weren't promoted because they're that good just that they're asskissers.

She has made her place by leaving a trail of bodies with knives in their backs including one of my former bosses, who was very nice and capable. This bitch got close to her and then undermined her to upper management and got her canned, and took her place as my boss. Which pissed me off because I liked my boss. That and I have decades of experience doing this where she has 2 years. And sucks at it btw. Not that I wanted teh job. I didn't. But I also didn't want her as my boss. Which is why I transferred departments.
.
yeah, I get this, but is she smoking hot or a hag with a bun on her head???
I'm leaning towards the latter...smoking hot wimmens rarely apply vinegar where honey is needed.
