Tell HN: Why I loathe PMPs

PMPs get promoted to engineering management positions where they make critical decisions about issues that they have no idea about. Case in point, an email I received from my PMP PM in response to my request to be given read permission on table metadata to be able to generate my Hibernate classes :

"SYSTEM_PSEUDONAME_X" should just be doing a simple JDBC insert into these staging tables without using any OR tool. The table definitions are already provided along with write permissions. So you should not be need to read the table metadata.Its all driven by 4 weeks delivery timeline. Hibernate will anyways be an overkill. Direct insert into these tables is the way to go."

I would avoid Hibernate were it not for the fact that these are tables with over 20 columns each. But hey, the PMPs alway s know better than a mere 'development resource'.
