Sage advice. Much appreciated.

My growing a conscience angle may have more to do with a wish to get fired in a way that allows me to collect unemployment, so I’m not the only self-serving bastard here. Whole ‘nuther topic, but I’m working on a new business, and my wife is utterly opposed to me living off savings for half a year or so. Which I understand, but it requires me to more or less lie to my current company. I call it a side hobby since I’m not getting paid. They would call it a second job.

But you’re 100% right. Diplomacy is a strong suit of mine, so I’ll figure a way to deploy it gracefully.
