It is end users that push the average up. You know how they are always messing up requirements and changing project scopes.

Subject: RE: Work vs marriage
I have watched this thread, interestingly started by a Brit but mainly followed by Americans (which is probably why nobody referred to one's supposedly better half as 'the trouble and strife') with much curiosity. Given the idyllic picture ("The little IT shop in the prairie") one wonders how the US manage to have so high a divorce rate. Must be SAs, developers and end-users who push the average up.
Very refreshing.
