Watching from the sidelines on this one. You know, there is a
common situation that drives people batty. When we are working hard and
intently on some problem and the end is not in sight, sure enough our
friends pop in and blithely ask "What's wrong and when will you be done?"
Our reaction is unprintable at best, isn't it. Not only an interruption
and request for personal fulfillment, but a question about details which
we are slaving to come to grips with.
This situation happens to all of us. My best suggestion is to
quietly wait for word to be put out. Don't walk into a situation that
is taxing folks and ask "What's going on?"
