There was this one time... a a colleague at an IT (software) company was having problem opening his new laptop.

A bunch of us gathered round and one of us (probably not me, I dont' recall actually) found the catch. I was laughing at this point.

Soon after, my boss hinted that I should get back to work. I was still laughing, couldn't stop. I told him that I was standing by in case the guy needed to close the laptop.

I was really laughing hard that day... I guess the boss was worried about the impact on the new kid.

Fair comment on one level I think...

But.. It does sorta depend... there's theory and there's practice. The two diverge... particularly (for me) as my fatigue increases. I can be nice sometimes, or pretty nasty at others.

So I'm on the fence with this topic...

What I really hate though is when a person takes ten minutes to go check through, when they know there are others in line. If I have a problem with a card or finding money or something, well hey - I'll stand aside. No point making my problem everybody elses problem.
