It Sayings..

Post by Chain »

Chortle just fixed another simple problem here when I came up with the saying

"Can't see the Forest for the Trees"..

So he turns round and says don't you mean "wood for the trees" ?..

Kinda funny.. You see I work it this way..

As most people go out and buy expensive items (Gadgets) then fail to read the destructions before playing I feel it only fair to explain the fixes backwards, or flipped as it were..

As support 90% of the problems I solve at the desk involve standing back and looking at the problem, before even touching the machine. So I stand back and see the Forest while he is stomping around lost in it, looking for a hill to see the forest, only all these damn trees keep getting in the way.

Or in other words I look at the problem from the top down, rather than bottom up.

Any thoughts?
