This article does not surprise me, nor do I have any sympathy for their situation.
Totally agree there, one Indian engineer I've worked with had a problem with a specific piece of equipment in the lab one time. So... I told him to power cycle it. The guy waits 10 minutes, comes back and asks me "how do I do that?"

I was like... um... "you can flip off the power switch on the equipment, pull out the cord or just flip the power bar". Guy goes away fro 10 minutes, comes back and asks me... "which power bar? "

I'm just like.... "um... the one connected to the piece of equipment you're having trouble with" . Obviously at this point I'm concerned, so I go to the lab to check things out... Turns out the guy has unplugged every piece of equipment from the power bar and then proceeded to unplug the power bar from the wall. Come on, the guy has a masters degree too??? WTF
