Default Re: Garry

You ain't alone there, bub. Same thing in my company. All the good guys who knew the business from the ground up are gone, to have been replaced by youngsters fresh out of school who know NOTHING. We've watched it happening step-by-step since 1995. The few of us left who actually know what we're doing have fallen back to the formidable redoubt of "we get paid by the hour". When it pleases us, we select a few of the newbys from time to time and try to teach them THE WAY THINGS ARE. We've been pretty successful at this, being fairly selective as to our "candidates".

I won't even get into the state of affairs regarding lower and middle management. We have to lead them by the hand; the smart ones know enough to shut up and let us carry the ball... the dumbshits (of which there are many) try to reinvent the wheel whenever they can find a few spare minutes when their noses aren't buried in their bosses asses.

Upper management just plays a game to maximize their performance bonuses.

What a world we've inherited... :
