Go, Suity!

[suityou01]

Strikes me that turning up on day one and immediately tossing around change requests and so on before you have the slightest clue how either the technical, business or personal aspects of the project work is silly. At best you'll seem like an overenthusiastic puppy, the noob desperate to prove himself.

Go back and re-read the bit where I posted about their positive feedback.

The bit you are missing, and I don't think I posted, is where we had the initial discussion about the project and the history of the project. It was described to me as "in a bit of a pickle".

I was not being arrogant. I am doing a good job, and a successful and on time delivery will do me no end of good, both in the eyes of the client and for my own sense of job satisfaction.

I am, by Clipheads own admission, a nice guy. I like to think so. I try to be. My wife and kids think so. My friends think so. So I'm all good with that.

I told them what I was planning to do. By virtue of the fact that the project was in a bit of a pickle, and by virtue of the the fact that I come across professionally very well, they took a gamble.

If you think of it in the context as I see it, they are busy making money. They don't want the hassle, so if a guy comes in, seems confident and is nice enough, has a good track record and knows what he's doing then why not just give him some rope and see what he does with it. After all the go-no-go is with them, and if it doesn't work out they only lose a weeks fees which they can comfortably afford.

Perhaps those of you that don't get it, have always worked like cowboys and have never done a professional day's work in your lives and are poking fun at someone who can walk the walk.

Let's see.

Perhaps those who are walking the walk are the ones who don't post every detail and minor difficulty they encounter doing so... you and Psycho sure do do a lot of talking with your walking.

I'm sure you are a nice guy too; I'd buy you a pint.

Ministry of silly walks springs to mind.

Perhaps, but MF is a top dog contractor apparently and we hear about his every (bowel) movement.

For info, I'd let you buy me a pint, it's my inner northerner.

You seem to be advocating much cheapness, plenty quickness. Are you Boab Kircaldywaldy?
