I'm always impressed dealing with the creators of enterprise systems and that they invariably admit they don't know something, and go out of there way to help.

Try to refactor code for a 3rd party system where there is no publicly available road map of where they are heading, you can still achieve something by ego flattering

I'm just chuffed that by saying I know how to code particular features but I don't know what you consider best practice in this area going forward, I suddenly end up getting walk throughs in person, get to bypass their support system, and get involved in testing new features...and the end client will pay for it

But the crunch was learning what technologies they were pushing on with I wasn't supposed to know, that will save so much effort down the line

Stroke the ego sometimes that's the message
