being my coworker

Aaron blogs about Damien's gripes about working with me. It's sad, but true. The quote, from Aaron's blog:

Damien lost a battle over 5 pixels in a recent design decision..errr argument. He was so sad he put together this graphic.



I had to inform him typically it’s spelled “Commie”. I think it’s supposed to be Roy. Kim Jong Il would be more fitting for Roy though.

At MindTouch, battles are not won by superior arguments or rank; they're won simply when the other side is too tired to continue. This is how we design features, how we design UI, and generally how we function as a company. We call this "consensus by exhaustion." ;)
