The voice of reason speaks ;)

There should be a back-to-school policy for dumbwitted managment.
I'm always amazed at the rigorous hiring policies (even worse nowadays) for technists, 
and the ridiculous hiring policies for project managers and their sort.
It seems to me, to work in a certain environment, you atleast have to know something 
about THAT environment.
To me, project managers, more often than not, are like tourist hikers going off into a 
blizzard wearing only their shorts and some suntan lotion. And then hope that they, in 
the event of them getting into trouble (no, that would NEVER happen, yeah right), will 
call rescuers and be helped in a matter of minutes!
