Moment of Enlightenment:

After a few too many go arounds up against the developers this build, it's faintly possible I am losing a sense of perspective in that I just had to go and quickly erase a comment in reply to a condescending explanation of why this program is not working no matter how I test it.

The comment? In public? To several paragraphs of explanation of why wrong is right and of course this program is working, people (you) are the problem?

...I really need to get out more.

I feel your pain. I just spent about 30 minutes on the phone to our global service desk trying to get them to SEND A FUCKING EMAIL notifying the user base that the system's going down for two hours tonight. Now I have to stay late tonight and manage/test/sign off the release on my own at zero notice because my teammate is in bed with man!flu.

w/e.

Totally appropriate response *nods*

I use the "what would rodney do" metric on these. If I have written over a page on WHY THINGS ARE WRONG ON THE INTERNET, than it is something Rodney would do. And I shouldn't send ti.

That's actually pretty awesome.
I like that idea.
Of course, if I wrote emails as I imagine Rodney would, I'd probably be leaving a trail of burnt bridges and flaming jello in every footstep.
