I'm incluned to agree with you totally syg00 and yes this discussion did develop very interestingly, of that there is no doubt.

Horacioemilio, I am perfectly aware that you don't understand. I will give you an honest clue and expect you give me an honest answer. Assuming that you work as part of a software team, and assuming hypothetically that you have a problem, you go to a colleague during your coffee break, explain the problem you are having and ask if they can work something out for you. During lunch you are sat with another colleague talking and ask if he can perhaps take a look and work something out for you too. Around five o'clock the two colleagues are at the coffee machine and one remarks to the other that you have a problem and that he has spent the afternoon working out the solution to your problem. The second guy says, hey I've just spent my afternoon working on that problem for him too. Question, what is the reaction you expect - two good answers?

So what's the difference except that this office is somewhat global. It's not likely to generate the sort of feeling that it might in the office environment, but you can see where I am coming from, can't you. In the future it's likely to be your colleagues that may be doing the walking on by.

After all if you double post in two of the forums here, you are likely to get a nudge from a moderator. Kapish?
