Incompetent C++ programmers

I love C++. I love the power that it provides. Unfortunately, it seems that good C++ programmers are really hard to find.

I'm sick and tired of programmers who think that using 'get' and 'set' functions makes their designs object-oriented, for example. Heck, it doesn't even make for proper information hiding!

I remember a grad student who tried to use the Visual C++ AppWizard, just so that he could claim to be a C++ programmer. What a ripoff. Sadly, that's how a lot of people market themselves as C++ programmers.
