Is the admiral janeway we see in nemesis the same one from endgame?.
Indeed, "Endgame" establishes that that Janeway didn't get home until after half a century of wandering - which means she wouldn't have been there to chat with Picard yet.
Timelines often get mangled in Trek, so perhaps this Janeway never got stranded in the Delta Quadrant... She never mentions that ordeal, after all. And she says Picard gets all the interesting stuff such as the Borg, which may mean she never faced this nemesis, not like she did in her own TV show.
Or then she's just kidding, which is more in the spirit of the scene.

Seriously though, perhaps Picard simply doesn't want to be an admiral? Janeway seems like the type who would want it. If Picard refused all attempts at promoting him, it's not so odd that Janeway would make admiral and he wouldn't.
That's the way I've looked at it. While I think that Picard would be reluctant to accept a promotion to the admiralty, I also like to think his meeting with Kirk cemented an idea that Picard will only leave Starfleet as a captain....perhaps Picard simply doesn't want to be an admiral?
