RE: GRIPES!

[Su Min Tan <smtan3@student.monash.edu.au>]

Talking about gripes I am having that same problem with my work arena.
Assertive communications can sometimes be a subjective topic.
Just would like to clarify this, I think "honestly" some bitching is good
for
the learners in programming and even better for those who try to master the
art of programming.
Isn't it more comfortable to be number 2 than to be No.1?

regards,
Hellgazer
