We will remind ourselves that everything will be okay.

What happened?

All y'all who didn't slip out the back door when I did -- you deserve what you get!

What's this "we" shit?

Can we get a do-over?

I've been away (well, afk, really) for a couple weeks. Did some shit go down? It was like that when I got here...

How can we best divide our time between trying to fix it and trying to cover our asses, either or both of which might be impossible at this point?

It wasn't me! I didn't do it. My evil twin is in town and I've been in a coma so it couldn't have been me.

Deny, deny, deny!

I advise you to consult with counsel.

Don't see it as a fuckup, Cmonkey, see it as a "challenge", an "opportunity", not as an area of concern, but as an "improvement metric", or as an "area of growth".

Failing that, pack your shit. There's a hundred people out on the street right now who would KILL to do what you do for us. This company has been watching you ever since that disappointing review last quarter, and well, now you force us to move forward.

Nuke it from orbit -- it's the only way to be sure.

I did it. Okay?! Can we move on now, please?

It's a FEATURE damn it!

I don't know - what are you going to do about it? And why are you asking me?

posted by dg 20 July | 22:25

You can't spend your whole life worrying about your mistakes! You fucked up - you trusted us! Hey, make the best of it! Maybe we can help.
