My boss told me to cram it, then it all died down, with some grovelling from me. I didn't get a third extension

I was once having two IM conversations:

1 with my boss at the time (a real eejit)
1 with a mate.

The boss was being a tuliphead. So I told my mate that he was. Except it wasn't my mate

D'oh

Fame at last.

That was close

just writing an email to another Team about a problem with their .Net applications, and accidentally pasted EO's quotation into the email:

''Thank God I am a contractor. That is not self congratulation, that is me holding my hand up to heaven and thanking my lucky stars.''

would have been funny trying to explain that.

Milan.
