Re: Aging out was RE: job-hunt weirdness

The Peter Principle seems most applicable to business management, 
especially at the director and higher level.  The flaw with trying to 
apply it to lower ranking staff is its assumption that once someone 
rises to the level of his or her incompetence he or she will be left 
there and never fired, and while there certainly must be some companies 
that are reluctant to fire people at lower staff levels, I've not 
encountered one myself.
