The Peter Principle is when someone is promoted beyond their level of competence. Sometimes, a person is promoted because it's the easiest way to get them out of their current department.

I'm describing a parallel phenomenon where the person sleeps with the boss to advance in their career. They jump to the front of the advancement line.

My thinking was that she did something she was good at and got promoted, until she finally got a job where she was bad, and that the story involved peters.
