Those criteria will move you up and get your foot in the door, but it sure as hell won't keep you there. You need to be able to work to stay at that level.

In the words of Chris Rock: "I don't feel I deserve a job over a white man that's more qualified. But if it's a tie... f*ck em!"

Many officials are talented enough to stay there. It's getting the foot in the door that *is* the problem.
