It reminds me of the time when my Director asked me what the main strengths of my colleagues were. The Director was not, I write this euphemistically, a genius.

When asked about one of my peers, I said, "They are extraordinary at [this]"? The Director followed up with, "So you wanna say they are not good at [that]"?

When bad intentions are assumed, there is always a firm grip on the climb to total idiocy. And that Director was in clear view of the summit.
