    Thanks for all the responses. I agree that yes most of my gripes about this new hire being completely under qualified (he lists past employers as Goodby, JWT, Saatchi and Saatchi, etc.) and I know how petty this whole question sounds, which is why I am reluctant to talk to my CDs about this. I was just using good ol QBN to see if I have some kind of ego thing or what. And this is not so much for a pay increase (though that would be cool), because I get by just fine and it is not really ego either, because I do the best work I can everyday regardless of the title I have. This would be specifically to help allow me to progress in my career(learning to better manage small groups of designers, mentor the younger designers, inclusion on higher level problem solving etc.) and not letting this next step in my progression and design professional pass me by because management at my current agency is hung up on hiring people with impressive sounding resumes that can't get the job done.
