(2007-02-02 20:33:40) eagle15: That really hurt my feelings, Jack.  I've really been trying hard to support you as much as possible since I know how stressed you are in real life.  I'm stressed too, but I want to make things easier for you.
(2007-02-02 20:36:52) Dipper: I understand that, but it just bugs me when people do the things I'm meant to do without letting me know
(2007-02-02 20:37:12) Dipper: because it really makes me think why I even have the title, if I'm not going to be doing anything
(2007-02-02 20:37:39) eagle15: I've done one thing recently and that was because someone came in and complained about it.  I wasn't here to know why you had left IRC; all I knew was that it was about 1 a.m. your time and you had told me you were going away for a few days.
(2007-02-02 20:38:04) Dipper: that's my personality; I don't like not doing things
(2007-02-02 20:38:05) eagle15: I apologized when you came back for stepping on your toes.
(2007-02-02 20:38:10) eagle15: You said it was fine.
(2007-02-02 20:38:12) Dipper: I just don't have the time to devote to this job
(2007-02-02 20:38:17) Dipper: Yes, it's not just that though
(2007-02-02 20:38:52) Dipper: the last two things (edict page and front page) you just didn't seem to, I don't know, appreciate
(2007-02-02 20:39:11) Dipper: and I'm still waiting to find out what you and Larry have found wrong with the coder edict
(2007-02-02 20:39:39) Dipper: anyway, I'm off to beat up a pavement
(2007-02-02 20:39:43) eagle15: I'm genuinely sorry if it came off that way.  With the front page, I had just walked in the door and booted up IRC.
(2007-02-02 20:39:59) eagle15: I expected Larry to talk to you about Coder, so I have no idea what's going on with him.
(2007-02-02 20:40:00) Dipper|AFK: It's not just you
(2007-02-02 20:40:13) Dipper|AFK: There are things that need to be done in the IDept that aren't being done
(2007-02-02 20:40:22) Dipper|AFK: So I'm about to give Rob a firm kick up the ass
(2007-02-02 20:40:25) eagle15: I agree.
(2007-02-02 20:40:32) Dipper|AFK: there are even things I didn't know had to be done
(2007-02-02 20:40:40) Dipper|AFK: eg, navigation page
(2007-02-02 20:40:40) eagle15: Like?
(2007-02-02 20:40:49) Dipper|AFK: which is now chronically out of date
(2007-02-02 20:40:52) eagle15: Ah, yes, that wonderful piece of crap.
(2007-02-02 20:40:57) Dipper|AFK: Fortunately Russ has agreed to update it
(2007-02-02 20:41:13) ***eagle15 nods.
(2007-02-02 20:41:21) eagle15: I've tried to stay off your back about the minutae (e.g. reports).
(2007-02-02 20:41:35) Dipper|AFK: I'll get one done this weekend
(2007-02-02 20:41:40) Dipper|AFK: Now I have something factual to say
(2007-02-02 20:41:47) Dipper|AFK: other than we sat and looked pretty
(2007-02-02 20:41:54) eagle15: The GMD publishes a report every month that they sat and looked pretty. :P
(2007-02-02 20:42:06) Dipper|AFK: Nice for them
(2007-02-02 20:42:37) eagle15: Aye, the GMD never does anything. :P
(2007-02-02 20:43:17) Dipper|AFK: I'll be glad to get out of government at the end of this term
(2007-02-02 20:43:23) Dipper|AFK: I'm really not enjoying it like I used to
(2007-02-02 20:43:33) eagle15: I'm sorry it's been such a poor experience for you.
(2007-02-02 20:44:49) eagle15: Larry could take over for you as IDir.
(2007-02-02 20:45:00) Dipper|AFK: No, I'll see it through to the end
(2007-02-02 20:45:06) Dipper|AFK: I just regret leaving the Academy
(2007-02-02 20:45:18) eagle15: Why would you "see it through to the end" other than to say you did?
(2007-02-02 20:45:36) Dipper|AFK: I didn't have the time to hand over properly with running the IDept too
(2007-02-02 20:45:57) Dipper|AFK: Because there are a couple of projects I wouldn't mind seeing finished
(2007-02-02 20:46:06) Dipper|AFK: so that it doesn't look like I've wasted an entire 6 months
(2007-02-02 20:46:33) eagle15: Okay.  I'd rather have a productive, happy department, honestly.
(2007-02-02 20:47:00) Dipper|AFK: If you want my resignation, just ask for it
(2007-02-02 20:48:15) ***eagle15 sighs.
(2007-02-02 20:48:20) eagle15: That's the last thing I *want*.
(2007-02-02 20:48:54) Dipper|AFK: Well I see little point of Larry looking after the IDept for 2 months
(2007-02-02 20:49:16) Dipper|AFK: anyway, I'm already late
(2007-02-02 20:49:17) eagle15: What I want is to not have this conversation every month and have you publically embarrass and hurt me.
(2007-02-02 20:49:22) Dipper|AFK: I'll be back later
(2007-02-02 20:49:25) eagle15: Have fun.
(2007-02-02 20:49:29) Dipper|AFK: Then ask for my resignation
(2007-02-02 20:49:45) eagle15: [15:48:33] <eagle15> That's the last thing I *want*.
