I was thinking of a former supervisor of mine, when I worked for a testing lab. I would frequently take a bit more time with some samples, when they were a bit tricky, and the client was complaining. He told me that the customer didn't give a s--- if the result was good.

I told him; I'm sorry. it will take a bit more time. And, I told him that the next time he took a vacation, that he ought to leave his wife and kids home, and book his trip on Who Gives A S--- Airlines.

Bon voyage!

I once had a boss who would tell me something was good enough, I told him Goodunov was a Russian dancer, not a work standard.

I was recently asked by CEO, "why are you doing all that work?". I said, "Because people's lives are at stake." So I quit, and has been a very good move. The company is shutting down, hooray!!!
