MBA's don't actually do management, they do management consultancy which combines the worst of PHB and Consultancy into one hugely profitable venture, and currently costs the taxpayer millions of quid a month. I've only met one person who admitted to having an MBA, he seemed quite proud of it, and he was frankly, a complete muppet, he was a marketing director and a total weasel, in fact everything that you'd expect from somebody with an MBA. He was the bright star who decided to change the name of a global logistics company and rebrand it entirely at huge expense, neglecting to tell anybody anywhere what the new logos or domain names were, so after all the new brochures with new domains, etc went out, the domain names weren't registered, the email addresses didn't work, and the website had a different company name and logo. He was frankly the worst kind of PHB I've ever had to deal with.
