I challenge KCC and the rest of the politically frenzied, self centered ELT to attend the Factory training and pass a certification fair and square. Sweat the brow. Understand what makes us great. Touch and feel engineering, respect it.
Don't act like we don't notice how shallow your natural authority is. Many can do your job - can you do the hard engineering?
If you did, you'd be humbled by the beauty of what's in there in a way which would make your petty little virtue signalling seem frivolous in comparison with the power of the hard science in there, we all have a heart, we just prefer to not make a nauseating fuss out of it because we fuel our drive to do good solving hard real problems, not farcical self aggrandizing achievements in a teapot.

Forget the ELT, I want to hear cloud VPs explain the architecture. It’ll be funny af.
Forget KCC, I would love to see ER or any one of the Engineering or Product Leadership be able to explain what we do, how we do it, and pass even the most simple of TD knowledge tests. Spoiler alert - They can't!
Here's a challenge - have every senior executive describe the high-level architecture of the Teradata database and then run a query (ANY query)?????? In the early years, ANYONE in the building could be stopped by Jack Shemer and asked "what business are we in?" and they could answer. Jack called it the "janitor test" ... far cry from the "leadership" shown today :(
It would be interesting to see if any of the ELT gang could complete the course if there was a training team left to that could teach it. Didn’t they lay off everyone in training?
Are you kidding? One struggles to operate Outlook. Please don't put her anywhere near the tech otherwise we'll be seeing Intelliflex boxes with diversity emblazoned on the side panels. Cause.. You know, that will make it run better.
