Thread regarding National Oilwell Varco Inc. layoffs

Do you remember the time when competence meant something?

It still never ceases to amaze me how some manage to get positions that far exceed their competence. I wonder how these people manage to do the work for which they do not have enough knowledge, skills, abilities? It's no wonder that NOV is sinking.

Competence ????? if you want to see total INcompetence, simply visit Kintore and meet the management, all of which have been promoted in accordance with the Peter principle
Most amusingly is the git that used to run the Kintore operation is now destroying the highly profitable Dubai operation.
The id--t making all these promotions is so far up his own back passage it’s hysterical.
