"Popular wisdom has it that "Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach," implying that people with real practical skills are out doing constructive things, while those who can't cut it in the "real world" find a less demanding refuge in teaching."

"...and those who can't teach, teach teachers" so I'm reliably informed

You've obviously never worked in IT. It's not quite as bad as it used to be, but when I started out all managers were incompetent fuckwits - usually with massive personality defects. Thankfully most of them are retired now, but there's still one or two of them blundering about.
