So I have a question for everyone. I know I'm not the only person out there that feels like there boss isn't up to the knowledge standard at their work place. Lets face it, when you promote up through a company or the military and learn new things about your new job you tend to forget things about your old job. Its the way the human mind works. It suppresses information that isn't needed for the tasks that present themselves on a regular basis. The information is still stored in the human hard drive, just rarely accessed. My question, though, is this: Why, if it's someone's job to teach others how to do the required work, do they always seem to never know how, even if they were just recently promoted from doing that same work themselves?
It just doesn't seem right, but that's what goes on at my work place, and I'm sure at many of everyone else's places of employment, but I just had to ask.

Hm, I wouldn't know. I've been quite lucky on those that have promoted step by step. My trouble are those douches that come from outside and never learn about what they're supervising in the first place.
