Many times I've been the unfortunate designated stuckee who

Engineering to Production, turns dreams into practical working
hardware, and has to tolerate abuse and resentment from both sides.

The production ladies became very cooperative once they realized I
would listen to and respect their advice. The male Production Manager
was another story. That is a revolving-door job like programmer, ad
copy writer and salesman, and I'm not dumb enough to take it on,
though I may have made them feel threatened that I might. In a high
tech organization the staff with a business rather than scientific
education always seemed nervous and defensive about their job
security. They may bluster and pretend like TZ but like him they
can't
hide their ignorance for long.
Yep, Jim Wilkins brought 20 solid years of fussing like a worthless 5
year-old. (I bet he's proud)
