A related pet peeve: This situation wouldn't even happen if the world wasn't so full of "yes"-men. (And note that outside of fiction, most "yes"-men don't realize they're "yes"-men). In an ideal world (ie, fat chance of this happening - I know) the people who actually do know better would explain to the manager that that method is bullshit (not in such words, of course). This would force the manager to do one of three things: Either pull his head out of his ass, or shoot his worker turnover sky-high by firing everyone that comes along (and thus drive the company into the ground), or drive the company into the ground directly by only ever hiring people who really don't know what they're doing (and then get a government bailout, etc, etc...) But everyone just looks out for "#1", even if that means holding on to a job that's a piss-poor one to begin with. So the ignorant/incompetent managers remain ignorant, incompetent and employed, and all their workers and customers (and the rest of the damn world, for that matter) have to suffer for it. > The easiest > (or even only) way to do that is to set all dimensions in pixels. > And the result is something that ranges from bad to horrible for > most other people.
