If it were up to me, it wouldn't be until a civil, mature email had been written conveying at least a little remorse for past activity (down to specific activities) and plausible assurances the same wouldn't continue.
But you know what's so cool about this job? That I can say "That's *your* problem, dude! Do what you think is best and deal with the rewards or consequences." Ahhhh.... Nice. :)
Back to work. Got SQL Server running fine here as well as Visual Studio, but can't seem to get the help system installed, and I need it badly. Once I learn how to connect to the table I'm working with, I'm off to the races.
