Against all probability, some people do actually try do at least some quality work, despite all the s***e. Problem is that, since standards have been plummeting over such a protracted period, junior staff often don't know what could once have been achieved, for the simple reason that they've never experienced it, nor indeed their supervisors/POs. There's lots of ways of improving the standard of a piece of work without it costing more (site photos are an obvious one, most of the ones taken these days are just embarrassing, Mick Sharpe would be turning in his grave if he were dead), its just that most of them haven't got the experience or awareness of the possibility to do it
