Why do marketing people try to play engineer? by AndyA 2010-09-28 09:14:51
It's bad enough having to diagnose problems with the interface to 3rd party modules without the source code we are using to drive it.
I do not need a marketing person second guessing everything and passing on distorted versions of the facts on top of that. Why does he feel the need to "make a contribution" rather than just letting the technical people get on with their jobs?
