I've spent much of my last four years systematically turning down every project a specific director has launched.

The turn downs save enormous amounts of our hardware budget, and each time are measured as not happening users.

No one has yet noticed that basically none of that directors projects are still running and put together that the things he builds stop working after two years.

I keep getting paid good senior engineer money, and don't have to think too hard about what my next project should be. But it's really demoralizing to realize that he will continue to be promoted.
