Yeah. You've got that right. I have seen a number of times where it's "David Fryer wrote: anything//BLAHSTUPIDBLAHWRONGBLAH".See I don't understand what you are saying here. Have you been visiting the pet shop again?
Yeah. The other guy just likes to be contentious on every thread I've seen him post in. He is one of the driving forces in the cleric/heavy armor uprising and the edition wars.You also found someone who likes to be contentious on your conversion thread. The first guy seems like he's having a conversation with you about it, though.
Oopsie. I meant to imply that the response to your post was after the "//". Sorry that wasn't clear. :(

Why does nearly every company promote people who are grossly incompetent?
Fixed it for you. :)
It seems to be a combination of the team got the work done in spite of the manager's incompetence, or the feeling that they might be somehow more suited for a higher level job.
Edit: Top of the page for that. :(
Scott Adams has a theory about this. Basically it goes that incompetent people get the promoted to get them away from any position where they could actually hurt the company. Basically management in buisnesses way of culling the herd.
One of my friends has a slightly different theory on this, which is that people get promoted to their level of incompetence. There's this common misconception that someone who is good at a lower level job will be good at a higher one. So they keep promoting them until they end up in a job they can't do. And then they get stuck there. :/

Either that or the upper management hates you and wants to punish you by giving you an idiot boss.

I've heard that before. I have also worked for a boss that I think fits that steriotype.
Don't worry. I'm still here.
So am I.
Me too!

Can't fire someone? Promote them out of your dept! Works in schools nowadays too!
So tired. And the kid is taking so much attention today. Not to mention the laundry and dishes that still need to get done. And I have to take out the trash. Oh yeah, and finish that character. Want nap. :/
Me too!No you aren't.
Don't reject me David! I'm part of you.....!

Now you understand how I feel.

I just signed up for a single-session cooking class. How fun.Actually, that does sound like it could be fun. All the men in my family can cook, to one degree or another. And, while I certainly I'm certainly not the greatest cook in the world, a chance to improve might be interesting.
Yeah, I just signed up for one session with a friend, so it shouldn't be too awkward. We're going to be making some French dishes, which should be fun and different.

Enjoy it! Make sure the class doesn't include cooking with a microwave. :)

Lubricate off you bucket of bolts! You don't even have a profile!

Time to head home folks. See you all later.
Bye Aberzombie!
That reminds me of something else everyone should do...

Where do I sign up?
Mmm...French dishes...
Is it just me, or is there a lot of grumpiness going around today?

Nope. I'm feeling it too. The aftermath of the full moon? The sugar high crash after Halloween?
Perhaps finding out that Sharoth and Sebastian are really the same person? *oops*
