How embarassing. That is certainly something I would have done. In fact, I can remember specific situations where I put my foot in my mouth, and I'll never forget that white-hot, nauseous feeling I got when I realized what I'd just done. <BR/><BR/>Don't worry- maybe the person will forget all about it!

Don’t worry- maybe the person will forget all about it!

In fact, to attack. In your situation, after so-and-so confronted you with their authorship of the stupid names, you would have had to have said, "You? You did this to us? Thanks to you, I'm going to meetings in the Zoo? Great job, Charlie. Thanks a lot." This is, of course, mean, but better that they feel bad than you do. And that completes today's lesson at Tania's Finishing School for Assholes! By the way, I find that the best thing to do, when caught insulting someone, is never, never to take it back.

My boss sends information around with a "routing slip" for all of us to sign off on and pass to the next person on the list. <BR/><BR/>When I started here, I assumed that signing the slip meant that I had read it, and since I never read any of that stuff (it's really boring!) I never passed them on. Then my coworkers started figuring out that when ever one of these things was missing, it was on my desk buried under a pile of paper. <BR/><BR/>Finally it dawned on me that I didn't have to read them at all, I could just sign off and pass them on! What a relief. I still got tenure. <BR/><BR/>It's amazing how often "what the hell" is the correct answer. But it can get you in trouble sometimes! I still think it's worth it though, over all. :-) Once again, you are hilarious.
