Subject:Performant malodorous co-workers From:John Wilson <jwilson -at- AMADEUS -dot- NET> Date:Wed, 9 Jun 1999 10:10:57 +0100
Hoping to kill off two threads:
Performant is a French word, used here by a contributor from Quebec. Yes I
know he shouldn't have but French words can creep into one's vocabulary if
one lives in a Francophone country (I try to resist this tendance myself).
Smelly co-workers. What next - co-workers who play heavy metal in the
office? Workers who bring pets to the office? Managers who bite employees?
Nothing to do with technical communication.
