Re: Farewell to Steve?
Steve, they are mad because you make off color comments and you don't
take their advice. They are experienced and you are not. They give advice
and you don't follow. They are mad at you for the same reason parents get
mad at their kids, because they are young and think they know more than they
do. Yea, you say some good things and it helps some ppl out. But you also
make rude comments. True, you are joking, but you can't joke like that with
ppl you don't know well. When you do, it pisses them off. You have learned
that right??? If not, now you know.
