I've reached the point where I refuse to enable such people, even if it means short term sacrifice for myself.
They need to die off, in a career sense. Any help I give them, even when well qualified and executed on my part (i.e. despite them / their attitude) is just adding to the problem.
Seriously. There are a lot of "morons" and "jerks" out there who need, simply if painfully, to be "disenabled".
(And, to some extent, if their/the customers suffer, well, those people voted with their feet in becoming customers. In our "free market" society (this is a U.S./"Western" perspective), it's somewhat akin to our politics: You can bitch all you want about the politicians and how they are screwing you over, but YOU elected them.)
