My first boss was a "just" guy. Thankfully he was also pro dev, being one himself, but sadly he was completely self-taught. This led to some interesting ideas, such as:

"We should not migrate anything to, or start any new projects in, .net framework 3. We should become the experts in .net framework 2, so people who need .net 2 solutions come to us."

"Agile means we do less documentation." (But we were already doing no documentation)

"Why are you guys still making that common functions class library? I just copy a .vb file into every project I work on, that way I can change it to suit the new project." (This one led to the most amusing compound error I've fixed for a fellow dev.)

Good guy, all in all. But frustrating to work for often.
