> Or are you suggesting some way in which underqualified hires can somehow... breed other underqualified staff? In the absence of bogon supercolliders (or, well, actual human breeding) I don't see how that's possible. Am I missing your point?

I read "companies are really needing qualified staff" and wondered if the need was caused by the process of cleaning up the unqualified staff's messes. The unwritten part was "if companies hadn't hired unqualified staff in the first place, maybe they wouldn't need 10 competent people, just one or two".

Ah. That's true enough, though it's amazing how much mess even one qualified person can clean up (though 'qualified' is really the wrong word: 'competent and motivated' is more important).
