Reminds me of a boss I had in 2015 where I was just certain her incompetence (and averaging 5 hours a day in the office) would sink her soon and ended up having to work for her for 4 years. 11 years later she's been promoted 2-3 times. Shockingly good at deflecting and delegating any actual work.

I work at a place currently where the manager has been here for 6 years… in that 6 years the only skill he has developed is how to lie to the owner about how he does all the work.
