People who badger you
« on: July 22, 2009, 02:02:40 PM »
Right

I wrote a report a while back. Frist draft.

I knew there would be a second draft.

I get comments back from three sources.

I carefully address all comments. In all seven fooking hundred changes (most of them capital letters and stuff)  evil:

I send it back.

She in London asks if I have addressed all comments  evil:

I refer her to my e mail response and my revised report. evil:

Can't she fooking read?!?!?!?!?!?! cussing: cussing: cussing:

OK, I pointed out to her that she was wrong about three  things (amounting to 350 changes) which she has not responded to  evil:. I also said I was not prepared to change some things which would effectively falsify the report. She has not responded to that either  evil:

I hate this part of werk

Nick takes a professional stance ~ I'm proud of you my boy. There comes a time when one simply has to say "No more compromise".

It's a report about Scottyland. The students  are not happy. She said the report was too 'negative'. I told her that that was how they felt. What's the fooking point in doing a survey if you misrepresent the results?

Indeed you are.
I have always thought that the worst thing about drowning was having to call 'help!' You must look such a fool. It's put me against drowning.

I thought that this was going to be about people in Nicks village who throw decomposing, exploding badgers at him.  It's a local tradition by all accounts

That's an urban legend I'm afraid Miss C. Decomposing badgers, like microwaves, only explode when Nick pokes them.

However I believe there is an annual event where the other residents throw safety equipment at Nick in the hope of staving off the ApocaNickse whistle:
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

Fortunately for the world, Nick rarely pokes anything these days.  noooo:
