Terry,

Thanks for your advice, I like it. I'll definitely try the next time :)

>I read an interview with the "inventor" of NetScape in Wired. He offered that some corporations are structured using the "crappy person" syndrome. This means that managers (and those involved in the hiring process) tend to hire people with lesser skills to protect their job. IOW - The manager won't get fired and replaced by their hiree. Go figure.

>1) That everyone working for the company that is buying my service is a customer representative. They're always right.
>2) And to never say anything negative.

>If I were to advise you on how to handle THAT specific situation, I would suggest that instead of critiquing you co-workers solution, it may have been better to ask her what she thought of yours. We can't expect others to have the same passion for quaility that we do. We can't expect them to take the hits we take (or give!) in the UT. They're grazors, were preditors - we must keep our prey relaxed :-)
