get a pair of headphones? everytime he starts spouting, switch on some Jimi or maybe something heavier
He will probably find that rude, which will help you and he will probably carry on talking to himself, which will be amusing. Even if he doesn't, you get to listen to some good tunes and don't have to listen to the muppet -----Original Message----- From: Matthew P.

Heehee, that made me giggle for some reason. ;) Seriously, though, I can kind of understand. With the brains that you encounter in the "coder" world, you also get a generous sprinkling of eccentricity here and there, that doesn't always translate in a good way. Some super smart people don't quite have the people skills many of us take for granted. I would hate that you had to quit because of an uncomfortable environment, but if you've had all you can... But you've got a house, loans, etc, so if you can make it, go for it. Sucks though... -----Original Message----- From: Kwang Suh [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2003 12:19 AM To: CF-Community Subject: Re: What should I do? I'm not trying to make a statement. I find this person to be so offensive that I don't think I can handle it anymore. To give you an idea of this guy's thinking processes, he recommended to our boss that we switch to MS Access for all our development, because it can make charts. He's supposed to be a "solutions" architect. My co-worker had to beg to the boss not to do this (yes, our boss was actually considering the recommendation seriously). Like the idea about the keyboard.
