At at former job, I was called as a reference for someone I really didn't like as an employee (all work-related). I started off by repeating the company line "I am only able to confirm that he/she worked here, and what their job duties were". The person calling picked up right away, and asked if he could still go through his list of questions. So for anything where the answer was short of nice, I repeated the company line. Took me a week to get that phrase out of my head. _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lopsa.org http://lopsa.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/discuss This list provided by the League of Professional System Administrators http://lopsa.org/
