One Hundred and Ninety Two

Justin lost a wife, but found a job, so he’s happy.  He doesn’t understand women—or men, either—and is happy when working with computers instead of people.  But I foresee trouble, because Justin’s new boss seems to be as obtuse as he is.

He’s a young man, half Justin’s age, who knows little or nothing about computers.  He prides himself on being a manager, not a mere technician, and treats the programmers with contempt.  I told Justin to look for another job, but he insists he can handle his boss.  I suspect he's reluctant to look for another job because the divorce has left him temporarily financially strapped.
