    I know how that is... Being an engineer as well, I gotta do that very same thing.

    I was picking on our purchasing guy one day and my boss pointed out that I might want to be nice, he might be my boss one day. I told my boss that the joy of kicking people on your way up is that you get to do it again on your way down.

    not too likely the purchasing manager will be the boss of an engineer either...

    maybe at a corporate exec level, but that wont happen for a while...
