I recently sat on a panel where I had to convince the other panel members that one applicant “wouldn’t go postal,” if appointed, so apparently that is a no-no.
He hasn’t gone postal so far, but I work in another office and am eagerly monitoring the death rate where he works.
I find this amusing, because here I work, “cog” is “cognizant engineer,” the professional in charge of a given task. The person is either a scientist or a licensed professional engineer.
I have. One guy I knew WalMart wanted him to work in their corporate IT office in Bentonville. Only they wouldnt let him work on their most advanced systems he was told. When I was a computer operator it want the company but senior employees did what they could to keep newer employees from learning the advanced systems so they always could keep their jobs.
But I get what your saying and you no doubt have more industry insight than I do.
