Amen.

Nobody ever says "I want an entry-level programmer," because then you have 
to justify to management all the expense of training.  So they ask for 
senior-level skills at an entry-level price, and end up with an entry-level 
programmer they then have to train anyway.

There are a great many times when business politics simply boggle my brain.
