OK. That sounds good to me. I wasn't sure how you decided what to pick
and what not.

This can happen to everybody, clearly there are days where one thing
leads to another and we overreact. Still it's important that we don't
mess up the good atmosphere we have in the team because of
misunderstandings or having had "a bad day".

Have a nice day,
 Daniel
