    ...OK, that might be pushing it a little. As I mentioned in my last post, I was presenting at a mini-conference yesterday. One of my customer's sneaked out after my talk. I went for a walk to the lobby of the hotel where we had a room a little while later, and there she was, working on her laptop. And using my software. No complaints, no compliments, just getting on with her job doing work with tools I created. Sometimes it's nice to be in software! Iain.

    I am one of "those foreigners coming over here and stealing our jobs". Yay me!

    Good for you! Personally, in my current job, I would be a more productive member of society if I were in jail hammering license plates... :laugh:

        A lot of these people work in places where people are very sensitive, so they learn how to swear and cuss silently.

        I knew my self satisfied feeling couldn't last! The person involved was a lady though, and they're too nice to swear...? Iain.

          one of my collegues just goes enrage and mashes up his desk and drawers.

                          Always nice to know that what you spend time working on is actually useful to someone.
