Well, this may or may not make sense, but the best people don't always win, even if their presentation is much better than others. For example, in my english class, there's this one girl, volunteers for everything, raises her hand for everything, and always sees that it must be nesccesary for her to state her opinion. My english teacher, instead of always picking her since she shows off the most skills, tends to actually ignore her, due to the sheer fact that she's extremely annoying. I'm not saying that Chris is annoying, I'm just saying that quality isn't everything, it is also how the person presents him or herself, at least I think that.

This is a general statement so no one get bent about it, it is not directed to anyone. Being the best is always a good thing but if you have a pompous attitude in a job that requires you to deal a lot with others then you are not the right person for the job. People will reject you on the basis of the way you come off at them and not by what you need to get across to them. This in itself is self-defeating and does neither you nor anyone else your trying to help any good.
The best people I have found to work with are those who have humility and not puffed up about what they can do. Really good people don't brag on what they can do they just do it without conflict. You need confidence to be a good leader I agree but to be overbearing brings reproach and conflict. The PWA are leaders, that is what the job ensues. So therefore the conduct to be a good PWA you need to be humble yet stern in whatever you need to do. This cannot be done if you have the reputation of being a horse’s rear end and indeed you are, no matter what your talents are. Like I said at the start this is
my opinion and not directed at anyone.
(btw Jagen I know I didn't say it at the beginning but I agree with you.)
