as a teacher & an engineer, I can tell you that is spot-on.
A good teacher (or engineer) has to perform well despite those crappy systems. However, If one does perform well in these systems, pressure is quickly brought to that guy, the one making the rest look like the slackers they are.
It is truely amazing how much effort some put in to keeping the mediocrity.
Ironic really; the way some strive so damn hard to become proficient at being mediocre.
