You know management doesn't have a clue when . . .

Today management put out a 15 minute fiscal year in review for our primary project.  Intent is to switch the DB of our primary product from legacy home grown (30+ year old) to a more modern one.  Toward end of accomplishments this director listed the conversion of one of our larger clients over to the new system as an accomplishment.  Problem is, it was done by accident!  They were not intended to be part of the auto migration process and were supposed to be exempt from it!  And yes, they are completely pissed off about it.  It has been nothing but production headaches for them (including one today that was being worked when this accomplishment was being trumpeted) including some corrupted data and lots of processing slowdowns.

This really left me with a bad feeling in the pit of my stomach.  If this VP doesn't understand that this occurred because of an oversight and is an ongoing issue so is not something to be touted as an accomplishment, what else has he been misinformed about?
