    For the first time, I actually understand where Rowan is coming from! He's simply operating on the "If I can't see you, you can't see me" Principle, which is derived from the "It's only a probability until it's observed and becomes reality" theory of life, the universe and everything. (That's colloquially known as "If I haven't seen it with my own eyes, it's not real" Theorem, or Rule 42.) These all apply not only to Rowan's ninja-like hiding abilities, but to the complaint pile itself. It should be noted that the "If I can't see you, you can't see me" Principle is tangentially related to the "Not touching, can't get mad" Rule of Thumb.
    It's simple science, guys! Don't Panic!

      Give that they're in New Zealand, I feel like the corporate culture here isn't unique to America.
