You wish (Page 4) Geoff: "If you haven't anything nice to say about anybody, come sit next to me." Alice Roosevelt Longworth Of course, I find myself using entirely honest but slightly bowdlerised responses to get by at work, such as: 1] That wasn't in the brief. 2] It does work, you just use a browser/OS that we haven't tested on yet. 3] Your email services are working fine at this end. 100% honesty would translate these to: 1] You are having a laugh 2] Your budget didn't stretch to us finding a 18 year old PC running Windows 95, then checking the website in IE5. Oh and in 256 colours. 3] You have been told about this before - I am not here to deal with you not being able to send email because you've typed an address incorrectly. orkanen: When was shutting up when your opinion isn't necessary, dishonest, and it's not my fault your boss doesn't look good with bangers and excessive side burns. Geoff: I am not saying that - I was saying that there is difference between being honest and being right. orkanen: I've seen two plaques, one states as follows: The boss may not always be right, but he is still your boss. The other: §1 The boss is always right. §2 In case the boss isn't right, §1 stands. Both, equally ridiculous. Geoff: Actually, you're right, Ork And my boss is a hippy turned capitalist. And the difference between honest and right is who you hurt.
