Actually, I am that specific smart and experienced developer. I find that no one believes I have a clue anymore. For example I was once asked whether I knew how to write Mac OS X Apps. I pointed out that I had been writing Macintosh code since 1986. I did not get the job because the hiring manager did not believe me, when I claimed I knew how to write Mac OS X programs. From time to time, while I don't come right out and say so explicitly, I make it plainly apparent that I regard the hiring manager as a damnfool idiot. That's not to imply that one must understand computer programming to employ computer programmers. I've had lots of really good managers - consulting clients too - who really didn't have the first clue about computers. However, there is quite a lot more to management, than understanding what your employees actually do.
