I always think of this scenario where the CEO and managers and all those with great titles in companies and organizations pass along duties to their minors. These minors do the most hard work to bring the best result and please their bosses. In the long run it is the boss who takes the credit for the work.
How i wish they can get the credit they deserve but instead they end up with peanuts in their pockets.

always the way, the minions do the work, the boss takes the glory but if it goes wrong, the minion takes the blame

I think youre right but in good companies employees will get nice bonuses or stock options.
If i ever run my own business i will certainly have a profit related pay bonus then employees will care more about their job.
My friend is an engineer for a famous company.
He gets around £35k basic but can pick up an extra few thousand through his bonus package which makes him work harder and be more loyal to his company.

Sure but then again not all organizations and companies have been able to do that. For those who do it,keep up

Maybe we should fuel this by appreciating those who contribute to our lives

Unfortunately when that hard work is recognized the credit is given to those who do not deserve it

I worked for an organization where people were "promoted" based on factors that had nothing to do with their qualifications. I wound up having to ghost author documents, correct errors, ghost author grants, etc. etc. It grated on me after awhile.

Very true. Their contribution is very important and that is what keeps things going

@JudyEv I agree but when it comes to those who are minor i still think they do much of field work which is more essential and demanding

@Missmwngi There is a joke about which part of the body is the most important. The eyes think they are, the mouth thinks it is, etc but the a**hole thinks it is. They all laugh at this so the a***ole stops working and the body begins to die therefore proving what is the most important part. It's a bit like that with businesses.
