InterviewNobody enjoys seeing another person take credit for their work.

If you're interested - foo and bar are words used by programmers/coders, sometimes to generalise or hide the original code. It's the algebra of the coding world.
One VP asked me to do a bit of research on an item, so I did it, sent out the slides and thought nothing of it. Then I get a call from the CEO, long story short, my findings became a major corporate initiative and would probably replace another as my research was concrete and the other department was more abstract and confusing. So this manager in the other department starts going around every office stating they were taking over my project (oh and she was the "pretty one"). They all knew she did this without permission, particularly when the CEO demanded I be the one to stay on this. She got chastised and a year later transferred to a new department....which was eliminated six months later.
