Mister Business can go without engineers, then. You'd think he'd let his own biases not get in the way of how a market actually works.
It's not just MBAs that act this way. A lot of engineers believe that their rockstar skillset is the only one that runs a company, and therefore only they should be compensated at some "elite" status.
- WaxProlix 10y agoMight just be another instance of everyone living at the center of their own universe - their skillset is the most valuable, their viewpoint the most legitimate, etc. While I do love me a good anti-MBA circlejerk from time to time, this is probably not the best target. If Mr Business didn't try to optimize and pay his engineers as little as possible, for instance, The Market would be broken in another way.
- raverbashing 10y agoOf course But the engineer who put up with Mr. Business crap are not the brightest ones usually. And to be fair they probably won't care to correct when Mr. Business wants to do something stupid (or just don't know this is the case). Or even if they do care Mr. B knows better right? Because he's the boss Then Mr B goes out of business because his product sucks, or "gets hacked".
