Depends on what they did in the service.  I worked for a guy who never
went above PFC.  The engineers under him understood that you hever ask
him a question, you just try to read his mind, because apparently he
got chewed out by a sergeant once for asking a question and he thought
that that was what a leader was supposed to do, chew people out for
asking question.  

The idiot would deliberately sabotage bids because he thought the
potential production orders were "too small".
