> On the other hand Joe from shipping wouldn't even know what a PLC is Joe from shipping is undefined. It is possible that Joe knows more about PLCs than you think you know about shipping, and that he has a god complex worse than that of a grizzled Haskell programmer. People all over have jobs that don't align with their interests, education, and prior work experiences. That's pretty normal; the bills still need paid and people find work where they can. > if you let untrained staff maintain electrical systems I think you have some more serious problems. Or maybe Joe from shipping is a departmental director who has this role because he is a strong leader who takes the initiative to embrace and overcome new challenges. We don't know.
