The Word of the Day for Jun 07 is:

echelon \ESH-uh-lon\ noun

1 : a steplike arrangement
*2 a : one of a series of levels or grades in an organization or field of activity b : the individuals at such a level

In the last corporate job I worked, as my boss moved to the upper echelon of management he made several avoidable mistakes (i.e. screwing over people) that ultimately cost him his comfortable position and earned him the opportunity to be laid off just like the rest of us. Ain't karma a bitch?
