say my piece already... but want to share this...

I previously have an officemate who studied in a well known prestigious university, and he always bragged about his school to the point of it became an annoyance to his teamates, there are three of them thats been admitted to our company and the other two graduated in a less expensive/prestigious college, they have the same degree and the same batch.... In almost 2 yrs that they work with our team, my senior notice that the other two is much better in handling pressure and tackling issues/problem coming almost in an instant during crunch time during the course of our project. The other one is too much beaurocratic (spelling??) in a sense that when he suggest his solution to the problem, its either too late or the problem is already in a different phase. When asked why his action is always like that, he told us that it is the proper way of tackling the problem, know first who is at fault, tell it to his immediate superior tell everybody thats involved in the project who is at fault, setup a meeting to discuss the extent of the problem and who's going to shoulder the expense, and then finally talk about the possible solution to the problem... He said its what been taught in his school, and instantly give some example of this successful guy who graduated on his school and all that ****...hehehe He also has a diff. view in dealing with our sub-contracts, treats them low and only treats them good if he knows that he/she came from the same school that he came from....
