institutionalized incompetence

When a dysfunctional institution teaches and embraces incompetence as though it is the pinnacle of competence because it is so embedded in its culture.

How does one truthfully explain something like the post office or the prison industrial system to a child without in some way making a reference to institutionalized incompetence?

Buffer of Incompetence

The person that is worse at their job than you. The person that will be fired if there are layoffs.

Crap... Steven got let go; he was my buffer of incompetence. I'll have to step it up.

incomputerado

without a computer or computer access, as incommunicado is without communication

I went on vacation without any of my high tech toys, being virtually incomputerado until my return.

Institutional Incompetence

How ever much money, time & training, large government departments and publicly run local bodies etc cannot get anything right.

For two weeks bad weather is forecast, 4 inches of snow falls, the country is ground to a halt, closed airports, railways, roads & schools, caused by institutional incompetence.

incrompetent

To throw more interceptions than touchdowns in a single game.

Justin: Jonathan Crompton had a incrompetent day, throwing three interceptions and no touchdowns vs UCLA.

Ricky: Yup, we're screwed this year.

incompetent

Being useless or very bad at your job or task.

This teacher is so terrible. He has not gone over any of the class material in 3 weeks of school and our test is in 2 days. Hes so damn incompetent.
