Tell me about it. I worked in IT as a tech. They hired this lady as a tech. She literally was not good at her job and didn't know how to do most of it. She was promoted to manager. The absolute best story I heard told was from a friend who was apparently telling her about their new central vacuum they had installed at their house. The first question this manager had? "What do you do when the walls get full?" Priceless.
Levi This thought process was made ever more present to me when during heavy layoffs they laid off approximately 1/3 of the IT technicians(you know the ones that did the work and were paid the least) and kept every single manager there. On 1/14/07, Peter Frederick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
The US plants have American managers. If they are like the ones I have currently at my current job (major US company as a contractor), they can turn any set of parts into junk. The notion that "if you know how to do it you are prohibited from managing it" seems to be universal in the US -- the only thing that counts is daily cash savings. Actual knowledge appears to disqualify one to manage anything -- most of my current managers (in a materials supply industry) have degrees in Liberal Arts..... Naturally, you get lousy product as a result.
