With how easy it was to get up this high, it doesn't seem right that so many people could be doing the same job forever and not moving up.

Like, is it not the natural ambition of humans to do more, to do better? Imagine having a low-skill job and not being able to excel at it, get the attention of your superiors, then summarily assume control via management positions.

This is way easier than actually having to do work lmfao people don't know what they're missing

If you can't excel at a "dead-end" job then how can you expect to do well at better jobs?

lmfao

Why do you build me up
Buttercup, baby
Just to let me down
And mess me around
And then worst of all
You never call, baby
When you say you will
But I love you still
I need you
More than anyone, darlin'
You know that I have from the start
So build me up
Buttercup, don't break my heart

Evidently some management positions don't require excellent, or even passable, reading comprehension.

If you really were to excel at the job and display valuable skills you'd be moved up

Obviously if you "excel" but haven't been promoted you're not "excelling" enough

not many people care about office politics
why should I aspire to become a higher manager/head of department and deal with the politics? i don't want to be on the phone 6 hours a day, present budgets/5 year 10 year 20 year plans and shit
i'd rather just do my job, skill up within my job and get paid.

Sounds like you need the gtfo that job then
Part of being a good worker is knowing when you are stuck or need to move out of a job and move up

Sounds like you're not excelling hard enough if you can't figure that out

So what? You weren't happy with the responses last time so you felt the need to make an identical topic?

As a soon to be Restaurant Manager I have no sympathy for DB managers who would throw others under the bus to get promoted. Not many people are suited to lead. I refuse to promote a hard worker that can not lead just for the sake of "elevating him". A manager sets the example is someone people can a should rely on. I love my employees but, most would be horribly abusive managers.
