You Never Had a Chance.

It’s not your lack of qualifications, skills, talent, experience, or work ethic that caused the boss to turn you down for that role.

It’s that you aren’t on the sidelines of his child’s Saturday morning hockey games.

Your father wasn’t a member of Parliament.

You didn’t work with him seven years ago.

You didn’t laugh at his witty asides.

You aren’t at church with him.

You have integrity.
