many aren't they have just seen the train wreck so many times before the inevitability of it bores them.Originally posted by DodgyAgent View PostThese sort of people think they are being terribly clever in being "honest". the truth is honesty has nothing to do with their behaviour. Their agenda is to undermine everything that goes on within a department or company. the word for them is "terrorist". All they seek to do is strengthen their own position.
Cynicism and humility are good qualities in support.

I find that the closer my end date comes, the happier and more positive I become.
I'll be skipping out of the door on my last day...

I prefer to call it being realistic.
Que meeting this morning where the business user supplying Data, who sent data so bad it wasn't worth importing, were complaining that we should have guessed which duplicates and over length records to import.
Its not like its a surprise I refused almost identical data for the same countries last month.
They wonder why I'm in-between them and the DBAs who refuse to deal with their rubbish.
So there answer was instead of us checking excel for duplicates and fields that are too long, They demanded I write a web based data validation tool for them! I replied well next month we are releasing a data upload tool which will allow them to upload automatically and I can escape these idiots.
Luckily the Bosses Boss was there and backed me
If I can't sigh & roll my eyes after that when can I?

I have more than a few Energy Vampires on my project, I'd love to suspend them and wring their bleedin necks, it would make for a happier more productive team.
So I support it!

Oh dear(tm), that's me done for then.
Professor suspended from top university for giving off 'negative vibes' - Telegraph

For dear old Freako, this is a story about a Professor of English at Warwick University who's been suspended for 9 months because he sighs, projects negative body language & is sarcastic.
<sigh>
If he could see the train wreck this tuliphole is turning into, he'd <sigh> for Britain.
Just saying like.
