It's a classic case of workers over-producing to make them more valuable to the organization, but in doing so they make the boss they want to strangle in his sleep appear equally as valuable and responsible. Of course the truth comes out when the real talent leaves and you're left with the incompetent idiot to run the business into the ground.
