I've been doing my current job for just over 3.5 years. My boss has been at our org for 8 years. I am not even close to being able to do what she does.
That being said, I found the following quote (by Peoria native, columnist, and President of Capitol Strategies, Cheri Jacobus) quite effective:
From the time Barack Obama was sworn in as a United State Senator, to the time he announced he was forming a Presidential exploratory committee, he logged 143 days of experience in the Senate. That's how many days the Senate was actually in session and working. After 143 days of work experience, Obama believed he was ready to be Commander In Chief, Leader of the Free World, and fill the shoes of Abraham Lincoln, FDR, JFK and Ronald Reagan. 143 days. I keep leftovers in my refrigerator longer than that.
Yet I continue to be amazed by the people who are voting for a junior senator.
Go John!

143 days. And does that even take into account the fact that Obama was absent for about 80% of the legislative session last year, since he was campaigning?
Amazing what a lot of fluff surrounding an inflated ego can do.
