As someone who hasn't changed jobs despite some opportunities I have seen a couple members of our team who did leave for greener pastures. Both have since returned when those jobs didn't live up to their expectations. One just ann

So, you're saying it has nothing to do with competence but everything to do with, competence? Just because the things that makes politicians successful don't make for particularly good people doesn't negate Carter's lack

It's a fallacy to believe that intelligence or competency in one field translates to competency in all fields. An admittedly intelligent and nice guy he wasn't a particularly competent president. Looking at his term through the le
