Next time, dear neuroticimbecile <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, send such
information to the parties concerned off the list. All though you mean well
and want to help, when there were damaged emotions and hurt pride in the
past, it is wise to discuss things personally and between the parties
concerned. As your question was whether it was a good thing to post this
information or not, it was not. In this case, it was better to follow your
doubts in the
first place.
We may be mature proffessionals but we are still human beings with feelings.
The IT proffession is a very demanding vocation and competition is a living
hell. Proffessional integrity is priceless and for some, it is their very
life and soul.
I am just an outsider and have no relation to all that was said and done,
but as far as what is observed, there was little or no healing that has
occurred. May the love of our Lord Jesus and the peace of Christ rule in
our hearts. What this world needs is love and understanding.
Besides, you may not have been involved yourself. It is just assumption
that you were fed up with all this talk around you where you are working
right now and want to find out the truth for yourself, and to find a bit of
peace of mind for yourself as well. It would have been discreete and wise
if it was done off the list.
God loves us all sinners and that was why He came to save us from our
shortcomings. Those very *same shortcomings* that make us do the things we
regret later on. You are forgiven and I understand. I hope that the rest of
us understand, too.
Gentlemen (and women), after all these postings, I am not at peace at
all. Please allow my service of peace to heal your hearts and minds. I say
my prayers for those concerned that the Lord will guide you in the truth and
may you find peace and healing. I was afraid that it is becoming close and
personal.
Flame me off the list for the consideration of the rest of us. The server
may be overwhelmed. God's love can accomodate all your what-have-you.
^_^
Pax Kristos,
A. Inion
