I have a job which has is usual stresses and strains but a hard as you try you are only human and occasionally, although you go through the motions and do everything you can, something pops up and kicks you in the nuts. You review what you have done and probably wouldn't have done anything much different but you beat yourself up about it. Ring any bells to anyone else here?

Stuff happens, no use stressing about it.

Only 'cause you make it up as you go along, and your thickie clients don't notice... 🙂

I think the more interesting question is why can you generally convince yourself and others that things have gone right.

I guess people (general public) have high expectations in that we know everything and can predict everything and don't realise that some things don't always go the way one would expect or can't be explained or confirmed.

I am a firm believer in "never say never" but I agree no news is good news and therefore if you don't hear back you assume its all OK 🙂
