The OP clearly shows that the person replacing him is
not as skilled as he should be. But even that person might
be smart enough not to generalize from one data point. I
can find nothing in the original post that denigrates an
entire country's people.
At one time when we sysprogs were overworked, a
consultant was brought in to update an SMF exit. He made
numerous elementary mistakes. After about 2 weeks, I
finally got time and updated the program in about 6
hours. During those two weeks, the consultant was working
on it constantly and had had at least 5 IPLs to test his
changes. We ended up not paying him for his time. He was
American. Should we now generalize about the skill levels
of Americans?
