All you need to know is that he labeled himself as a consultant. Which reminds me of this joke.
Once upon a time there was a shepherd tending his sheep at the edge of a country road. A brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee screeches to a halt next to him.
The driver, a young man dressed in a Brioni suit, Cerrutti shoes,
Ray-Ban glasses, Jovial Swiss wrist watch and a BHS tie gets out and
asks the shepherd: “If I guess how many sheep you have, will you give me one of them?” The shepherd looks at the young man, then looks at the sprawling field of sheep and says: “Okay.”
The young man parks the SUV, connects his notebook and wireless modem, enters a NASA site, scans the ground using his GPS, opens
a database and 60 Excel tables filled with algorithms, then prints a 150
page report on his high tech mini printer. He then turns to the shepherd and says:"You have exactly 1,586 sheep here. "
The shepherd answers: "That’s correct, you can have your sheep."The
young man takes one of the animals and puts it in the back of his
vehicle. The shepherd looks at him and asks: “Now, if I guess your
profession, will you pay me back in kind?”
The young man answers: “Sure.”
The shepherd says: “You are a consultant.”
“Exactly! How did you know,” asks the young man?
Very simple, answers the shepherd.
“First, you came here without being called.
Second, you charged me a fee to tell me something I already knew.
Third, you do not understand anything about my business and I’d
really like to have my dog back.”
