The person who got passed over was made his deputy but still had a huge amount of power and pay.

Not too much more competent than he was but better at playing the game.

My old boss encouraged active dialogue. If you thought you were right, and he was wrong, no problem as long as you could explain yourself.

However, when meeting with a client, whatever the boss says goes. Had to have a unified front in that case.

Well in that case, outshine him some more. What have you got to lose?



Yea, if you are fully burned you may as well try to bury him until they either act on it or you get a new gig.

Almost. The worst is when the boss is insecure and incompetent.
