<human>: Hi reddit. This is a really peculiar situation. I've been working at my job for almost two years. It's a retail position for one of those giant warehouses, similar to Sam's Club. I was hired as seasonal and was able to retain a permanent position with hard work, diligence, and dedication. This is a large corporation known for treating it's employees well, and I'd like to try to get myself promoted and make a career out of it. One of my seasonal "classmates" has been promoted and is regularly pointed out as an example of how to move up. I was discussing what I need to do with my manager, and she said "look at XXXX, he applied for every opening that was available, and interviewed every time he could. When the seasonal front end supervisor position opened up, they took a chance and now he's a permanent front end supe." I hadn't really interacted with XXXX other than exchanging pleasantries and so on but when I asked my manager what he did before starting here, evidently he used to work as a VP at Bank of America.

I thought that it was somewhat weird to go from a VP position (which I'd assume would be a six figure job at least) to working an entry level retail gig, but it explained why he was able to get promoted so quickly. Usually it takes a few years to get promoted to supervisor where I work and I figured that upper level business experience helped XXXX tremendously.

So, curious, I decided to google him and see if there were articles in Forbes, WSJ, or wherever else. Nope. However, there were a bunch of articles about a guy with the same name, in the same area, who was a high school teacher who resigned for inappropriate behavior with a student. I clicked on one link, and I'll be damned if it wasn't XXXX in court, looking remorseful as all hell. Oddly enough there weren't concrete details although the news source was a national syndicate (NBC.) Apparently he had sex with one of his students, after she turned 18, and was convicted of a misdemeanor and sentenced to three years probation.

I don't think mentioning this could have any good come of it, but it'd love to hear other opinions and stories.

Give me the gist of the text in a nutshell
