    I have to agree. We should always judge people by what they acheive, which is at least subjectively measureable (although the criteria may be subjective) and never by intentions, motive, integrity, honesty or all those other vague human factors we can never be sure off. If we did that the world would be a better place. Good intentions are not worth a fart in a hailstorm.

    I will graduate again in 2010 hopefully (unless I go for the MPhil first in which case it should be 2008). Keep fingers crossed.

    There is always an unpleasant surprise in this permie world where you least expect it. Ahhhhh if I was as young and soft as you are, sweet Becca....

    Permies

    The best thing about permies is their blinding incompetence. They can have all the praise/promotions in the world for putting in the hours as long as they're not productive. That's where we come in, do the work in a 1/4 of the time and spend the rest posting and planning trips to foreign parts.

    Long Live the Crap Permie.

    started a topic Thank you for all your hard work

    Thank you for all your hard work

    What's wrong in this permie world?

    You get credit if you work a lot, even if you don't solve the problem at all. To me someone who has to waste a lot of time for a simple solution is just someone who is unable to do his job, yet in a permie world this is seen as a positive thing and they reward you for that.

    Argghhh, I should stop solving problems and have to concentrate to look like I am working all the time while writing in the forums.

Working...
