Screwing something up...

Post by robinson46176 »

When you stupidly screw something up while working on a simple project just how loud is it permissible to discuss the situation with said project? :eek: :rolleyes: :o :D :p

As loud as it takes to make the project understand.
Some can be deaf as a board.:D

Remember, if you foul up in the shop but nobody sees or hears it, it didn't happen. So keep your voice down. ;)

Sometimes it helps to talk nice to it the entire time. Encourage it to work with you- but don't trust it or turn your back on it. Perhaps putting on some music may help.

Keep in mind... there are no mistakes that can happen on a project....those are just reasons to redesign!

Personally I think it matters not a whit how loud you discuss or even argue unless when arguing with yourself you begin to see you are losing the argument :eek:
