But over the years some of the crazy stuff that bubbled out of otherwise competent large companies has been amazingly bad, or the weak staff some of these companies sent out to customers also was amazing. Some managers at large companies were arrogant, and thought if they issue an order, yell and scream, and bang their shoe on the table, their staff will somehow make a difficult or impossible function workable. It doesn't always work that way, and some jobsites ended up being closed with eveyrone fired as a result of such management style. Some smaller companies were hopelessly incompetent. Somebody sees computers are a growing business and wants to get in on it, but really doesn't know anything, and hires weak people.
