If you insist that your company invests in a new software for your company that you deem "vital to the continuing health of the company," you better make sure you actually understand the software in question before you make the investment. Redditor u/DilligentCockroach700 took to the site's tech support community r/TalesFromTechSupport to share this odd story of a manager who insisted on purchasing a specific customer relationship management software that the original poster had to spend an entire Saturday installing… only to learn on Monday morning that the manager in question didn't actually know what it did or how it worked.
It sounds like this manager was in way over her head from the get-go. According to the post, she read about the software in a magazine and decided to imply she was an expert with that software to look impressive at work. At least she blew her own budget on the program, not someone else's. It's no surprise that she didn't stick around too long after this "lapse in judgment."
