Once, working for a government contractor, I had to write up the qualifications of some people we intended to place on the contract. Now, all of these people already worked on the predecessor, so there was not mystery about who they were or what they did. But people who were OK to plug in cables or clear printer jams were written up as if they had taught Bjarne Stroustrup to code and left Bell Labs because they didn't like New Jersey. For what it's worth, a) we got the contract, and b) the contractor screwed over the employees who stuck around.
