So many people comment that this is only a slight exaggeration. Rather worrying

This reminds me of the Multi-Discipline meetings I used to be forced to attend.
I was the Activities Director in a Nursing Home, and sometimes i felt as though the other staff wanted me to mount a Broadway Show with my elderly frail patients.

So I showed ‘em. For mothers day, 1985, the patients performed and outdoor production of excerpts from Fiddler on the Roof with Costumes and sets. We did “Tradition”, “Sabbath Prayer”, “matchmaker”, Sunrise, Sunset” and “Anatevka”, and had made all the costumes and props in the craft room.

I can do absolutely EVERYTHING.

I have seen this scenario many times in many places. Any student of human nature will recognize it. We’re seeing this, now, for real, in our government.

I have actually had meetings with clients similar to this, no kidding.

Now I understand where we got obama care from. Thank you.

My observation in IT is that the first answer out of the "experts" mouth is almost always "no" or somthing with more emphasis. Stakeholders are trained to accept that and many times they dont even bother to voice new ideas.

I collect ideas, even one that may seem absurd or contradictory and then I get great satifaction out of surprsing my customers. Sometimes they are so knocked out they forget it was their own idea.
