“Those two decisions - who gets promoted, when, and who gets a

raise - are much less significant for career care now than they

were in the days of lifelong employment with one firm. They don’t

matter a lot, b

ut your ability

to get hired

matters

tremendously.” — Forbes, “why pleasing your boss should be your

lowest priority”
