Tom Paris made lieutenant, was busted back to ensign, and then promoted to lieutenant again while Harry stayed an ensign.
Clearly we can infer that off screen, he was an absolutely miserable excuse for Starfleet.

But we know the reason: according to Insaneway there always has to be an ensign on the bridge.
Lol damn, poor Harry Kim, always getting screwed. 🤣
Yeah, although when he got back to Earth, they made up for it by making him fleet admiral.
No, he was Starfleet's only fleet ensign.
Except by the Delaney sisters.
From now on I'll always see Kim, when i encounter the original in some meme
It's so good
Becky busted her hump to make lieutenant!
Yeah, don't mock that little hunchback
Isn't it Picard Day on the ship? Those are pips they stole offa their parents' uniforms so they could wear them to show subservience.
Or street corn.
You just made me realize I lack the photoshop skills to make my true meme calling, cooking with Neelix
I got you, here's Cooking With Neelix:
I really miss those very solid videos from The Onion.
The captain have them his pips. One for each boy and two to the girl. Iirc.
Wait did you photoshop a pip onto the meme template? Lmao
I think he also photoshopped Harry's face
That's a lie and you know it
Harry Kim died for our sins. More than once.
I like to imagine there are starfleet scouts with bullshit merit pips.
Or perhaps the rank of their parents for some reason
Are you sure these kids wern't just enjoying some delicious replicated corn? Are we sure harry wasn't?
I literally just saw this episode. God I love this community.
Maybe that's why he didn't win the science fair?
Field commission. Those never hold up on inquiry.
Chakotay was field commissioned as a commander and made captain within 5 years of Voyager’s return.
