Which can't happen if they won't call him up. I just have trouble thinking of any other job where an employee has consistently been a top performer and would be so sheltered and delayed. People keep talking about not rushing him, but as a person, would you really want to be babied for as long as possible until a bunch of higher ups deem you as ready?
