"Say, Pierre; you know that upgrade we said we'd put onto the server for all our customers to get hold of"
"Yep - you mean the one we took to the Paris meet"
"Certainly I mean that one"
"mmmm, what about it?"
"Well, you said you'd put it onto the server...."
"I did."
"AH - so why do we keep getting emails from customers who can't find it"
"Don't know - ask Michelle"
"Michelle; do you know why customers cannot download the latest firmware for their Gen3s and the Opus?"
"Oi; we haven't quite finished it yet"
"Ah !!!! Why not?"
"Because you haven't added the thingy into the code, yet"
"Yes I have"
"No you have not"
"Ohhhh yes I have ..... look it says so there in the log ... "
"If you have, then why have we not put the software onto the server?"
"Because that's your job"
"No it's not"
"Yes it is, it says so on your job description"
"Ah non - that's not by job description, that's my coding error portfolio....."
Scene fades away to a tapestry as the spider on the wall slowly unravels itself from the cobweb of fantasy land. He drops slowly down onto the server and continues to wrap it tightly with sticky threads onto which more moths, flies and the odd beetle become attached.
Meanwhile in a dark room a man sits quietly with eyes closed.........he finally finishes the filter routine and attaches it to the email program....
"That'll fix that, any queries with the word firmware anywhere in the message will be automatically deleted without being read .... "
