Re: Re: Greediness, or Paranoia?

True, the feeling of knowing that someone else is making great use of your creation is an incredible feeling. I love that, and that alone was one of the reasons I wanted to create this. The problem is having a manager that doesn't seem to share your views on what is helpful, and worries about how I went about creating the programs, she sees coding as "HACKING". If she only knew what went into making a unix machine run, she wouldn't feel that way.

You work in technical support and built a new tool without management's permission. You used company time to do something other than your job. You included a hidden game designed to allow you and others to misuse company resources. And you wonder why you are having personal issues with your manager who doesn't trust you? You're not a criminal. You're simply unemployable.	[reply]

Ahh, but Anonymous Monk Did I say that I did it wouthout permission? Did, I say I did ALL of the code was written on my companies time? Did I say that my manager doesn't trust my work, or mearly that she doesn't understand whats going on in the code? Did I confirm that I was actually going to put this code in the release if it was going to be released at all. If you would have taken the time to pay attention, you would have found that you don't have enough facts to back up what your saying here, you may want to pull your foot out of your mouth, you are starting to drool.... -- Yes, I am a criminal.
