    Executives often mistake verbal ability for general intelligence; which partly explains how they managed to become executives in the first place.

      Managed? Every executive I have ever met has been one of four things.

      1. A friend of the owners
      2. a friend of another executive
      3. a fucking corpo brown noser
      4. The super rare climb up the ladder guy, but he seems to have discretely pulled the ladder up behind him
