    Just curious on the whole "Saying thank you to SE is like saying thank you to a janitor for doing his job" arguement. Wouldn't all the complaint threads be akin to walking up to a janitor right after they finished cleaning a bathroom and saying "You missed a spot here, here, and there. I can't believe that after being on this job for so long you still put out work of this quality." Because the latter sounds more insulting than the former.

    On a side note the argument this thread has mutated into is very entertaining.

    they are trying to compare the dev staff to your neighborhood friends and neighbors. they want you to thank them for doing a job, they get a paycheck for doing, even though you will never meet them.

    i do foundation work for industrial power and chemical plants. where's my thank you for being part of the process that gives you power and gasoline? my thank you is my paycheck and that goes just the same for them.

    really what would happen is the people who hire and fire janitors would get notice and they would say something or replace them. though they did replace tanaka right? lol guess he left a wet seat for people to sit on. but i'm sure the people pissing on seats are a problem too
