And while funny, after looking at these, I wondered how many of these are often true about individuals. Obviously the ideal project manager would want to get things done, and wouldn't take too kindly to someone getting in the way of that, but how many people can claim to to be the ideal manager? How many instead are the "weak, uninspired, lackluster" project managers, who seem to not care one way or the other? Or the suicidal project manager (besides on a project that is over budget and late). I would imagine that even though this is just a simple little joke, that many of these traits could have real life counterparts. But it's still funny.
