Private Sector more Efficient than Public?

[crazy canuck]

I introduced an anecdote to evidence a specific argument, but made no general conclusions based on it.

Oh my Grumbler.  You used an anecdote to try to show that my assertion was incorrect.  Then you got all butt hurt at the notion that you didnt make much money in whatever it is you did in the "private sector".

If you are going to attack someone you better make sure you didnt commit the same sin first.

Oh, my cranKy CaNuck.  You made a false sweeping generalization, which I demolished with an example from my own experience (aka an anecdote).  Then, you got all butthurt because you are still in the rat race and I can afford to abandon it because I made enough in the "private sector" to afford to shift to another, completely agreeable job in the "private sector."  I love my job.  I look forward to it every day, and I savor every hour of every day i am on the job (I will grant that I spend about three hours a month in meetings that are not so enjoyable).  Can you honestly say the same?

Physician, heal thyself.  I made no generalizations based on anecdotes.  I have made no historical claims based on what I've read in novels.  Can you honestly say the same?

Grumbler, you need a new keyboard as your Caps Lock is intermittently sticking.

More evidence that we need the "whoosh" smiley here! 

[Razgovory]

Poor Grumbler.  I bet in his own mind he thinks people regard him as clever and full of useful points of view.

[11B4V]

I do. He is one of the most eloquent insulters on this board. Always  very entertaining.

[Razgovory]

Meh, the majority of his insults boil down to, "I know you are but what am I".

Shall I de-construct if for you or do I make the erroneous assumption that you're capable of understanding what you did wasn't actually clever or amusing?

And Mongers falls on more punji sticks after wandering into to the tiger trap.

[PDH]

Only fair, Grumbler did invent the tiger trap.

[crazy canuck]

Only fair, Grumbler did invent the tiger trap.

And that was before there were tigers.

[Eddie Teach]

He called it the "velociraptor trap".

[CountDeMoney]

Only fair, Grumbler did invent the tiger trap.

And sharpened pieces of wood.
