Clowns of Navarra

I am working for a spanish gas company here in spain and to be honest they have picked two guys to carry out the customer acceptance tests who are the worst possible choices ever, one is an administrator who knows nothing about anything technical and the other is an arrogant engineer who thinks he is God almighty and he is important, this combination has made the task of running this job very frustrating. We have named the administrator the "Clown", he is so stupid that he tells other guys on site that he "knows nothing", and he has to ask for everything to be explained to him, we are at the leading edge of process control systems and he is asking about it all, this man is incapable of understanding anything so why does he ask, he is also terrified of making any errors and probably is desperate to not get fired. He also talks very strange and i can understand almost nothing of what he says. The other guy is an ass and thinks he is important, he makes demands and issues orders, but once again he knows nothing other than the manuals he is reading everything from. They made us carry test after test after test, almost 4 days of tests that prove nothing and as all controls guys know we could have cheated if we wanted to but this unit is working so perfectly that we didn't need to but they think that these units are easy to operate and they are not, They weill find out soon enough when they actually take over the units that they will struggle and will be calling the company asking for help, that will be pay back time.
