They're obsessed with that idea....


that they'll be the boss. For me, in the wild world of consulting engineering over the past 28 years, the head honchos for each company:

Company President/Direct Boss
WKU / VT (2 years)
Hamilton Coll / VT (3 years)
VT / ND (11 years)
OSU / VT (2 years)
VT / VT (2 years)
VT / Ohio U (2 years)
MIT / Ohio U (6 years)

In all those years, I've had one (1) UVa Office Manager for 2 years who was adequate, but nothing spectacular. I've had very few UVa clients, and a ton of Tech and VMI clients. If I had to guess, 60% of my clients have been Hokies, 30% Keydets and 10% random other.

On the flip side, I've had 3 Wahoos report to me, but I've never had to directly report to a Wahoo. They just aren't known for engineering I guess, so I don't deal with them much. I also have had several subconsultants in the past who work for me who were Wahoos.

So when I hear them spew that crap that they'll be my boss, I can't help but reply "but you'll always be my B!£@#!"
