Ever heard of "Kompetenz-Attrappen"?

A friend of mine just used this word and I couldn’t stop laughing.For the english-readers this word could be translated with “Competence-Dummy” and it ismeant to be used for a person that really is NOT competent. To me the german wordsounds better so I will keep saying “Kompetenz-Attrappe”.Maybe an interesting study: How often do you meet a “Kompetenz-Attrappe” in your real life?
