One guy here isn't being extended beyond next Wednesday so he's being thoroughly grumpy toward everybody. Guess why they're not extending him? That's right; for being a grumpy, uncooperative git.

Not me; I'm extended until end of January. Two grumpies are being dumped. One works for an insultancy that's going bust, the other one's a grumpy tulip that nobody wants to have around the place.Originally posted by norrahe View PostLooking for a new gig starting thursday then???And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

There is nothing like telling someone they are grumpy to piss them off
While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

Yep; yesterday I had to give a so-called 'Senior Technical Project Manager' some guidance on 'communication skills', which amounts to 'how to prevent your acceptant hating your guts'. Cool, this troubleshooting game; you can get paid more than most IT project managers just for the simple merit of being able to converse with another human being without exploding in rage or causing that person to explode in rage.Originally posted by doodab View PostThere is nothing like telling someone they are grumpy to piss them offAnd what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument?

Be grateful they're getting canned.
One place I contracted at had a team that had to approve all website technologies being used, and page designs etc, to make sure the corporate standards were being met.
Unfortunately the team thought they were gods and were the most pedantic argumentative bunch of tossers I've ever worked with. It was a pain getting anything done that involved them and several permie managers agreed they were making things unnecessarily difficult.
My jaw hit the floor when I found out they were contractors. How they never got canned is beyond me. They must have found something on the network to blackmail the IT director with.
Eventually we just bypassed them and the managers signed it off as the only way to meet the deadlines.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it
