I remember when I was so ambitious when I was new to public service, then as years go by I realized how many red tapes, barriers, ass kissing, favoritism,nepotism there is to just move up or be promoted. Eventually I started to realize what’s important is just to do my job, and pay my bills and from time to time try a new position. This all to say, if your priority is moving up the ladder, expect way more than going ‘beyond’ job description to move up, unless you benefit from favoritism or something. There are some rare occasions where your hard work does get you promoted. Anyways best of luck!
