    I get that impression.

      Maybe your permie role is comparable to a bum wiper in terms of level?
      It just feels that way when we have to deal that way with the mentally deficient such as you & Assguru. The point I was making again is we are a lot better off than many. By the way I know many people that are truly brilliant without formal qualifications.

      But who cares I get paid the big bucks for sitting at home with my limited qualifications and will get a stonkin pension as well!

      I'm probably a bit bitter today because a number of 'rising stars' have been doing a project and its 3 days to go live, I have come in to do the bit only I can do and it was carefully specced by me so I had plenty of time to do it. I find they have missed a load of stuff and I will probably have to do that as well.


      I think of one colleague on the project as AssGuru by the way, he is just arrogant & wrong.

          I think that logic (if you mean with regards to consistency, universality, and freedom from inherent contradiction), and the needs of the many, are generally incompatible as far as morality is concerned (i.e. the only possible morality such will be one where there can be no such thing a a positive moral obligation). But that's another discussion.
          I don't believe so many of our morals are based on improving society with rules by the main propagated by religion in ancient times. The ten commandments didn't include 'Thou Shalt be fair' that is new.

          Murder, Stealing, exploiting & coveting were bad.

              Funny I usually sit in my office and laugh at your stupidity.
              BTW, you're in the wrong forum. This one is for contractors.
