Just wanted to gather some other member's opinion on something I've been seeing more and more often as of late. To be completely honest with you, I've interacted with people in a variety of professions that simply do not deserve to hold their position.

Drug dealers with no customer service or mathematical skills.
Managers with no attitude control (yelling at customers in a customer service oriented position)
Someone getting promoted over a more qualified person due to race, having "friends in high places", etc
...the list goes on

I'm well aware that this is inevitable. Some people just get lucky. Some people achieve their position then start slacking off. But seriously, some of these people deserve what I would imagine to be less than baseline, instead, they boast success in their field. I really don't understand it. Mostly posting this to rant about the "unfairness" of life but does anyone have any intellectual input to add? What is up with this phenomenon?
