Sometimes, it's not what was said, but the context and "tone" with which it is said.

Offer advice, don't complain about defficiencies.

Al, sorry but you come off as an ass. Maybe it's just you. In your case it's bes tto stick to "if you've nothign positive to say, say nothign at all"

Sylph, Probably better to say "If you're going to scan it, it might be better to put off coloring until you can do it in photoshop, you can get really good colors that way". This comes off as helpful.

I have to deal with situations like this every day. Ever tried telling a pissed off trucker that it's THIER fault you're not allowed to let them leave, because THEY didn't check thier truck before trying to leave with it? Angry truck drivers are a bad thing, especially when for some odd reason they can have you fired for doing your job.

One of several jobs I've lost due to my big yap. The most amusing moment was as a Wendy's order-taker person-type thingie. Lady in the car actually had the nerve to say "I'd rather have a 'girl' order taker." Not accustomed to facing gender-type harassment in the workplace, all I could think to say was: "Would you like her regular, or 'Biggie size'?"

Anyway, nice job, all it needs now is some tone and volume-work, and the surgical removal of those notebook lines, but I'm sure Astaroanthros can manage that... that is if Wolfman-Al and I didn't sting too bad and cause him to tear all his clothes off and run naked into the hinterlands. Hopefully not, those hinterlands must be getting crowded with sweaty edgy naked people by now...

Kinda makes me want to take a trip to the hinterlands!

Nearly lost my job a few times. Apparently Teamsters are a very whiney bunch. Overpaid children really.

I wanted to check a bag at the customer entrance, got a teamster in my face asking if I wanted to keep my job. My reply: "Yes, so I'm going to have to either check that bag, or put you on the list of people who is probably stealing cause they wouldnt let me search thier bag"

Same day a driver complained that I wasn't doing my job, when I told him to pick his own keys up from the ground, since he was keen on throwing them. Mind you the only reason he was angry was that I had the nerve to walk up and ask to check the seals on his trailer. Imagine that, security making sure your trailer is secure..... He asked for my name, I offered to write it down so it would be spelled correctly.
