A coworker at a former compnay claimed he accidentally made a serious, as in really, really, expensive, coding mistake long prior to me working there, for which he was rewarded a nice big raise - since he was also the guy who was asked to fixed the problem ... Apparently, management never learned the truth, i.e., he probably would've been fired. My dad has some phrase about those in management flipping over the table so they can be rewarded for uprighting it. I.e., the flipped table is an artificially created problem which is easily solvable. Rod Pemberton
