Early in my career I was given the responsibility to ensure that one of our top customers was happy. This allowed me to gain the trust of the customer which gave them the confidence to allow me to assist them in designing the cable infrastructure that we're running on right now.

Long story short, the manager that I was working with was probably the laziest individual I've ever had the pain to work with. The problem was, he was so good at hiding his laziness from his superiors that in the span of a decade he was now running a top dep't, making probably $150k/yr. And this was in the early 2000's. Everyone under him knew his style, and it was a running joke in the industry that if you get to work for him, chances are he is going to take credit for any good ideas that you had.

The guy is pushing mid 60's now, and while he no longer works for the big corporation, he still works, still makes 6 figures, and still does complete fuck all.

Some guys are just good at hiding it.

Sounds like BC Hydro lol
