So, he's been in and out of the field for 10 years but he's been working for the same company for 15 years? How does that work?
And I thought he didn't have anyone to talk to so he was bitching at DU. Then he supposedly runs around town bitching to other people about his snowball's chance in hell of getting a promotion (having been "in and out" of the business for past 10 years) and then comes back to DU and brags about how all these people (that he supposedly didn't have to talk to) think the whole situation is shitty and they plan on making the guy's life who obviously put in the the time thus earned the promotion, miserable.
And to the kid who "looks up" to this loser: find a better mentor! Someone who floats in and out of jobs for 10 years, is 40 years old and acting like a 20 year old drifter, who publically lies about himself (one cannot have the same job for 15 years "holding out for that senior position" and go in and out of the same industry for 10 years) and believes he's entitled to a promotion he obviously didn't earn, who then goes around complaining to other people he works with (who probably know he's a whiny, lazy **** and just agreed with him to get him to shut up and go away) is not someone whose example you should want to follow.
