In on...Maureen,<BR/><BR/>Your Amos sounds a lot like my Dave. In one of my corporate "real jobs" Dave ended up reporting to me. One of the VPs once asked, "And what planet is he from? Zoltar?" The HR manager stopped in the hall to tell me how she admired my fortitude in managing Dave. (Manage him? I just try to keep him in the building.) <BR/>All this while having Dave tell me point blank I was incompetent and unqualified (screaming it at times.) He made it very clear he was smarter than me and everyone else - and yet could never quite make any of his deadlines or goals (but then, us ignorant masses just didn't understand.) <BR/><BR/>I actually felt sorry for the guy, but it didn't make my life any easier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
