Your ass on the line
Friday afternoon, before the long weekend, M is planning a major DB revamp...:


M: ...don't worry, I'll take care of it all, everything will be ok

Saturday morning ~10am
M: ..so G there's a bit of a problem. The DB is too big...there's option A or B... what do you think?

G: thinking lolomgwthbbq.....

A new plan is in place, both M and G have to do a bit of work over the weekend. G is to do some testing and some file transferring. Then later:
M: while at the Ex no doubt (in a SMS message): "Should i drop the db? Your ass on the line"

G: now thinking: OHHHH.. what happened to 'don't worry, I'll take care of it all'? ohhhhhhhh... well only one answer i can give: "The cowboy hat is on so go ahead and dropdb"




This reminds me of the time where the older W was working here, and was reluctant to put his ass on the line. N then creates a plain webpage with just a line across the middle of it and some text underneath saying "W, your ass better be touching the screen"
