how McKinsey works

RT Andres Salomon @Andres4NY@social.ridetrans.it

The 12yo was explaining to me how he takes shortcuts with his homework, not actually reading the material but just summarizing based on the first/last paragraph and... I explained to him that is a valuable skill, it's how McKinsey works.. the government refuses to actually read primary sources (due to lack of staff or whatever), so they skim through and summarize and charge the government $20mil and then the state uses the bad summary and fucks up and McKinsey charges another $20mil to fix it..
