Will Kelly--do me a favor and reread your own post. Do you seriously
want to assert that creative writers/English majors are the only
groups in the world with members who misuse work time? Do you?
Sella, do us *all* a favor and reread Kelly's post yourself. Nowhere in it
does he state or even imply what you're ascribing to him. He spoke only
about english majors and wannabe novelists because that was the subject of
the thread. And the "some" he used wasn't, as you took it to be, describing
the number of english majors who didn't misuse company time, but rather the
number who did, clearly implying that the majority did not.
Chill out, Sella. Maybe you need to sit back and take a couple of deep
breaths and put some distance between yourself and this topic.
Have fun,
