Nah.  I knew a guy who had never done any real programming, except for
small test programs in Fortran, who put several years of C on his
resume.  He freely admitted he couldn't program if you asked him - after
he got the job, and as long as a manager wasn't around.

After watching him for about two and a half years, I didn't think so.
This is a guy who spent *weeks* writing code to convert DD/MM/YY dates
to "November 25, 1997".  Not to mention that he decided to use YY after
1996.  I believe it took him six months to write a program which selected
file names and ran a conversion program.  He was simply *not a programmer*.
Whatever it is that makes programmers go, he didn't have it.

I think he would have been a fairly good tech writer.

I believe there are people who really just aren't getting any better.
I believe some of them will lie about this, because they'd rather have
jobs than not.

I've been in large companies, and I've seen sales reps say "well, I retire
in spring, and I'm going to get a pretty decent pension, so I'm not talking
to any customers any more.  Don't try to give me accounts, I'm not taking
any."  (After some study, they realized the company's firing procedure would
take longer than it would be before he retired and got the pension, so they
gave up and paid him to stay home for six months.)

Yeah, employers suck - but so do at least *some* employees.
