Bernie Sanders and the Peter Principle

[Cha]

166. Wow, brave.. you came back Sizzlin' just like you left! I know full well what the Peter

Principle is.. we were reading that when it first came out.. yeah, I know.. dating myself. lol

"The Peter Principle: Why Things Always Go Wrong ..."

"The "Peter Principle" was written in 1969, but you'll realize immediately it's still very accurate and useful today. Many anecdotes and case studies may remind you of yourself, someone, or some people you've worked with".

Accurate analogy to Bernie Sanders..

From you link..

The Peter principle is a special case of a ubiquitous observation: Anything that works will be used in progressively more challenging applications until it fails. This is the "generalized Peter principle". There is much temptation to use what has worked before, even when it may exceed its effective scope. Laurence J. Peter observed this about humans.[1]

In an organizational structure, assessing an employee's potential for a promotion is often based on their performance in the current job. This eventually results in their being promoted to their highest level of competence and potentially then to a role in which they are not competent, referred to as their "level of incompetence". The employee has no chance of further promotion, thus reaching their career's ceiling in an organization.

You know what I think the trigger for this latest shit really was? My interaction with Bernie Sanders supporters after #BernieSoBlack

The aggressors against #BlackLivesMatter Activists are disgusting and inexcusable.. and Bernie has never said anything about them even though he was asked to comment on it. No response that I've heard.

One way to honor #BlackLivesMatter would be to lead and acknowledge the disrespect shown to them by his own supporters. And, I'm not sayin' all of his supporters are doing this.. There are some who dislike it as much as we do.

Fortunately for us.. The DNC..

[quote]The Democratic National Committee has given its blessing to a presidential town hall held by leaders of the #BlackLivesMatter protest movement.

Tuesday, a website associated with #BlackLivesMatter movement posted a petition demanding the DNC create an additional debate to focus only on issues of importance to the black community: “It is not enough to poll the Presidential candidates on whether or not they think ‘Black lives matter’ or ‘All lives matter’ – we deserve substantive responses – including and in addition to criminal justice reform, what will the presidential candidates do to ensure that Black lives matter?”

DNC officials, and particularly chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz, have long resisted calls to schedule additional debates. But the DNC met the activists halfway, offering to host a town hall instead.[/quote]
