You are really missing a HUGE HUGE part. Promotions, Discretionary Raises, Bonues, can be awfully political. Rarely does hard work get rewarded.

I’ve personally seen people completely fucking up, or just are a terrible worker get promoted, or get that job that everyone was bidding on, just for the fact that he/she was liked, and not about hard work or competency

You are 100% correct on that. I wasnt trying to say my view is like the end all for what to do. I just think it helps and it has made me alot happier then i was before.
