Elaine: "Jerry, I had this dream last night that you will never believe!"
Jerry: "Oh yeah? What was it?"
Elaine: "Well, this client at work is just driving me crazy!"
Jerry: "You had a dream about the client?"
Elaine: "YES! Well, not any one person, but the company."
Jerry: "Go on."
Elaine: "Well, for this project, we left some fields blank, at their request, mind you, so that they could be filled in later."
Jerry: "So you dreamed about the fields?"
Elaine: "Well, kinda. Let me talk!"
Jerry: "I apologize, keep going."
Elaine: "Well, now they're telling us they don't want those fields anymore, but they already signed off on them."
Jerry: "I see"
Elaine: "So, in my dream, this client comes to us and says 'Well, I think you misunderstood what we meant when we said we wanted those.' So they take us to the basement and there's shackles all along the wall."
Jerry: "Shackles! You don't say!"
Elaine: "I do say! There's shackles in the basement Jerry!"
Jerry: "Now this is getting interesting"
Elaine: "Yeah, so anyway, each set of shackles represents a field in this layout. And where the 'filler fields' are supposed to be is an empty set of shackles."
Jerry: "So there's actually people in the shackles?!"
Elaine: "Yes! And they all look like they just got shipped in from third world countries."
Jerry: "So what are you gonna do?"
Elaine: "I donno. It was just a dream."
Jerry: "Yeah, but there's shackles!"
Elaine: "I know. This client is driving me insane." |
