I just finished a 330,000' fiber build for one of the largest companies in
the world.
I had to suffer through weekly (or more often) conference calls with project
managers like this.
I will never work for them again. Nobody knows anything but they mask it by
having to take it up with their "team" and get back to you.
For example we spent 6 weeks last summer in discussions as to how many
leading zeros on the handhole marker post labels. I voted for zero as that
would make the significant digits down in the weeds. They went with 4
leading zeros.
Yep, now at normal highway speeds you cannot read them. Many of them you
have to get out of the vehicle and walk over to read the digits....

Having had to deal with Google on their Fiber builds in California...... I
can attest to that. Rooms full of 30 somethings who talk to themselves and
believe their own hype. Try to tell them about any reality and they just
say, we are Google that can't stop us...... They learned that their name was
not the magic word. Those pesky zoning, building and pole engineering
requirements didn't know who Google was......and they really didn't care
either.
Thank you,

We used to call them paper tigers, loads of degrees and certifications,
but could not do the actual job.
