This is a common problem when hiring supposed experts. Unless the one doing the hiring is reasonably skilled in the area being hired for, it is very difficult to judge the skill and quality of the candidate.
- robertlagrant 6y agoThis statement ignores the prices. Just look at the prices and you'll see there's no way anyone thinks they're paying for an expert.
- blunte 6y agoThere are unfortunately many small business people who greatly underestimate the skill that goes into anything they don't personally do. Those are the foolish people who shop by price and think they are getting a good deal. These are also the people who keep Walmart alive. They have limited reasoning ability, and even if they might suspect it's too cheap to be any good, they want it to be good enough and are willing to pretend that it is. These happen to also be the people who easily accept absurd and obviously false statements made by certain political leaders. I know quite a few of these people, and I have tried countless times to advise them on reasonable choices, but it is like talking to a wall (if a wall could nod and pretend to agree).
