Is there any way to manage bad engineers that does not end in comically disastrous results?

Hah, too true.

I find giving them smaller, well defined tasks and checking in frequently helps erk some productivity out of them. Also having lots of check-ins and pair-debugging sessions opens the door for a lot of mentoring opportunities. If their still bad, send 'em to tech support or QA! (only kind-of kidding)
