It was very interesting to listen to her stories, "a view from inside". She's been told the same, I guess, because her assertiveness is sometimes overwhelming!

But I guess sometimes they have to defer to boss's name. The Boss is right there even if he's clearly wrong. So not unheard of is, when the Boss is really overproud, for more reasonable folks to just route all the information around the Boss, to actually complete the project at all and get stuff DONE instead of endless corrections as the Boss' right leg thinks fit.

I do feel for IT folks working for the architectural companies. Seriously :)
