But look out Every body around me is an Idiot ( when it comes to certin things ) ,
Example , I get to drive for 6 + hrs Tomorrow ( Literally past 2 other techs houses ) to do a 2 hr job .
Every body else just gets to shrug their shoulders and say I dont know , I get to figuer it out .

but that is the point. you are the only irreplaceable one there so you would never be considered for a promotion - one of the idiots would be more likely to get the job. the point is to be excellent at what you do, but quietly point out how each person is a crucial part of the company in their current role. you're complimenting your coworkers which is a feel good, positive morale thing and it also shows the boss you are a team player - not one to stab anyone in the back in the name of petty politics.

of course, that may not be applicable in every company.
