> That is what makes ambitious people successful.

No, that's the myth sold to you.

If hard work made you successful some guy who busted his ass for 50 years would be president instead of a dude who was born obscenely wealthy.

If he's miserable he can always give it away.

Oh no? Won't do that. Then shut up you incredibly entitled whiny jerk.

"management isn't really a promotion" from people who went into management and saw their responsibility (and compensation) very quickly outpace the people stayed as corporate code monkeys.

A majority of the people didn't even vote for the president.

CCCP was the red army. I think you mean CPC.

> management would send out emails to the entire company explaining why that person was let go

a few months back we had a meeting for people to ask questions after someone was fired. Didn't leave me feeling any better.
