I could not agree more strongly. Also recommend this book for anyone who hasn't read it:

Seconded. It's now titled "The Systems Bible". As humor, the book is a bit dry, but as (perhaps cynical) insight, it's gold. Read this and the entire collection of Dilbert strips, and you'll know 90% of how the world works.

(Amazingly, it wasn't written by a computer guy or other engineer. IIRC, the author is/was a medical doctor or something like that.)
