hiya mates. new wave, i'm not sick of blogging because i enjoy reading what other people have written but sometimes i'm too spacey to think of anything of my own to blog. so i guess that's a sort of iffy response since if everyone felt the same way, no one would have anything to read since no one would blog. did that rant make sense? i wonder who came up with the word "blog" and "blogger." strange. i came across the word "pulchritude" the other day and thought it was strange it meant "beauty." doesn't that sound weird? the word itself sounds so harsh.

...erm, anyway, to darth's inquiry, i think for myself it varies in each situation. if it will clearly hurt your standing to back them up and their mistake was really carelessness then i would be less obliged to take some of the responsibility. it's difficult because you are their friend but at the same time, you are in a professional environment and have to think of your own interests. i would probably try to help them as much as possible without seriously jeopardizing myself. have to be a bit selfish in this situation.
