Heh!
I got one fired already - My program replaced his (which was written entirly in Informix) mostly because.. Mine worked.
I'm not joking. 99% of the time, his would error our. The ONLY error message it EVER gave was "not enough data to burn". So, within 6 months of working at my company, my program replaced his as a core product, and he promptly left.
I'm left up to asking YOU guys for help because my own programmers don't know &*^#*@. At one point, when I started using fork(); I kept getting zombie processes, and didn't know why. (Remember, I lear as I go. Knew nothing about catching signals from child processes.) I asked three programmers in my company, and either they didn't understand what I was trying to do, or didn't know.

(I have really high hopes for people in MY department, "Technical Support", but others.. they worry me sometimes.)

Me.
