What the hell? Hope you told him off, not his job or his business. Weird.

Yet here we are talking about the person… they sound pretty influential to me. (I’m only half-joking)
Well, he rolled up to the same director and was the most senior engineer under that director, so it was a little bit his business.
And, like I said it was only semi scolded: he came to me and quietly said something like, "you guys don't seem very busy", which I took to mean "why are you loudly brainstorming future work when the guys in the next row of cubes over haven't slept in 36 hours?"
My answer was, "All our stuff is working."
