    Just started a new contract in London, and I am currently dealing the usual
    New application
    New environment
    New langague .NET
    New office
    New names

    Ok if that’s not enough 70% of them have undocumented nic-names

    Any suggestions, I already have problems learning names

            Just call em all love sweetheart or darling. Works for me though the blokes give me funny looks. A cheery "morning ladies" often draws a smile.
            I am not qualified to give the above advice!

            The original point and click interface by
            Smith and Wesson.

            Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time
