Dictionary and a company
I was helping out with HR a couple of weeks ago and someone came in to
interview for a developer position. His resume said he was a Scrum-master and
did Extreme Programming. Those terms just cracked me up. I was terribly
disappointed to learn that being an Extreme Programmer does not mean he

had to reformat pdf's into two columns for a pda program we have and start

I like Tom's idea of a blog. However until then, I just use the delete key on
replies to threads that are too long or not what I am interested in. Delete
keys are wondeful things...that being said, I can think of more than one time

I am laughing at this being a UK thing...my boss in Toronto used to put that on
bulleted lists of things for me to do...I had never seen it before and always
assumed he was trying to make the following smiley :-) and just forgot to put
