Sometimes I question how my boss got into their position. We were hired at the same time and I have more experience in the relevant subject. However, that individual has more total overall experience.

Its in the back of my mind, but my boss used to work with our director and I just have a feeling that played a part in their hiring. if I interviewed my boss I wouldn’t of hired that individual.

it’s annoying me. Anybody else in a similar situation.

Phone call today indicated the director did not approve of remote and could I move. I assume this isn't normal?
