No shit. Biggest muscle bound frat-bro fucktard I've ever known kept climbing in the corporate world. His work was shit but always getting top marks in our group. I was sitting next to him when he got a call from "his bank", put it on speaker phone, and gave them his credit card number, expiration date, zip code, and 3 digit code. "Dude, Randy, that was a scammer". "Oh...shit.... I better call my bank".

Pretty people have it unbelievably easy not mater how fucking stupid they are.

Where do you work where you get "top marks"?

[–] Monkeyhog@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Where do you work that they don't give performance appraisals?

[–] Person264@lemmings.world 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

We have performance appraisals, never heard them referred to as "top marks in a group" like we're still in school doing a group project, to me the original post reads like a story made up by a student.

Everyone got 3 and he got a 5 on his review even though I was double his sales. Yes, most places do performance reviews.

Well, that sucks, did you raise it with your manager or is there no point

[–] Pistcow@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

Yup. This situation isn't unique, and I've seen it twice before. Mediocre work but pretty and just rocket up in the company.

Maybe other men unconsciously feared being beaten in a fight with him, since he was more physically strong than average. Maybe we're still cavemen deep inside.
