No. 632, September Term, 1978.

41 Md. App. 443 (1979)

397 A.2d 265

LAWRENCE H. BARANSKI v. PRINCE GEORGE'S COUNTY, MARYLAND ET AL.

Court of Special Appeals of Maryland.

Decided February 8, 1979.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Karl G. Feissner, with whom were Feissner, Garrity & Beckman on the brief, for appellant.

Steven Gillman, Associate County Attorney for Prince George's County, with whom were James C. Chapin, County Attorney, Michael O. Connaughton, Deputy County Attorney, and David E. Grover, Associate County Attorney, on the brief, for appellees.

The cause was argued before GILBERT, C.J., and LISS and COUCH, JJ.


GILBERT, C.J., delivered the opinion of the Court.

Promotion satisfies the hunger of ambition as drink quenches thirst, temporarily. Where the seeker of promotion is denied his goal, notwithstanding what he perceives to be his superior qualification,1 the hunger sometimes spreads throughout the body like a metastasizing cancer. When that occurs, nothing short of total a posteriori recognition will soothe the damaged ego.
