In industry, and before, a common adage was "He who can does; he who can't teaches." Circumstances developed such that I decided to try teaching. In teaching the adage got changes to "He who can does; he who can't teaches; he who can't teach goes into administration." I enjoyed teaching because I loved the students, but inept administrators prompted me to skip that step and go directly to consulting. In consulting, the adage got further change by adding "He who can't administrate goes into consulting." Now retired, I have again changed the adage to add "He who can't consult goes into politics." Guess who is leading our country today.
