To make things worse the RG manager wouldn't let you make any changes. On the plus side the AP manager can configure the RG units.
Good lord... This reminds me of a conversation I had with one of the security guys I work with... We've basically come to the conclusion that these companies are in such a f-ing hurry to get product out (thanks to the sales pukes) that they don't let the engineers do the job right the first time... Thus, flooding the market with an inferior and basically worthless product.

Personally, I think the whole damn lot should be lined up and shot. but hey, that's just my opinion.

So, on our wall of idiots, we've got a dead heat for last place:

Lawyers
Used Car Sales folks
Pretty much everybody in Congress
and Consumer Electronics Sales Pukes.
