I guess, but if you were ambitious assistant and someone you worked with had just snagged a senior role wouldn't you feel tempted to pick the phone up and remind him that you existed? I would.

But he must have a network. I've got a bloody network and I'm not important at all. But I know I was ever, I don't know, elected leader of the Coalition (I'm going with really unlikely things) or I finally realised my dream of captaining Australia, they would be on the phone, emailing CVs and I'd want to hand pick a couple because I value their talent and I'd just want a couple of familiar faces in the crowd.
