He's 100% in that photo. I have not just met him once before, I've seen him every day for months on end and talked to him over a beer a couple of times.
Your team?... Are you doing some projects down in Melb?

No Eric was FIFO from MEL to SYD when I was leading an IBM program at Westpac. He's a very smart guy, very good at what he does and a great fun person. Very cocky and I've heard him described as arrogant. I liked him a lot and respected his professional abilities.

I'm not across the dramas around him here but I can assure you people are different IRL compared to online. He's a good guy.

Impressive indeed. Yeah his online persona is quite different to his real life character from what some people have told me... so I never really understood why he goes on the trolling rampages he does. I guess trolling is a great way to relieve some stress? lol...

Good to know you have your hand in quite a few different baskets. I thought property development was your main game. Keep it up!

Paul, no we're not mates, he was one of 140 people in my team each of whom I had the same level of contact. I haven't spoken to him since I moved off that program in 2010.

One of my best mates Geoff was Eric's boss at the time and Geoff thought a lot of Eric. On the few times I had a beer with Geoff and Eric I thought Eric was a good guy. He's got (had?) a hot South American girlfriend and he likes cars so I figure he can't be all bad.

Like I said I don't know the drama cycle around Eric here but I sense he's not well liked. All I'm saying is that IRL back in 2010 when I last saw him he's a good guy.

You on the other hand Paul, I don't know at all. Let's meet up for a coffee face to face some time.

Eric can tell you everything you need to know, he's been stalking me on the interwebs for a while. I might come out to the drags one day, as long as you dont pick on my dct box not being a manual

You've got the wrong idea mate! I'm a middle aged family man working for a multinational corporation. I work each day to bring home coin to keep my wife and two kids fed, clothed and sheltered. If I end up with a few bucks here and there I can put towards my hobbies then I count myself lucky.

Big Shot Fancy Pants I am not.

So I was driving down Green street today and drove straight past the offices of the MSCC! Didn't realise it was such a full-blown production. So what exactly do you guys do?
