“Wow, that's something we haven't thought of, we need to think about those aspects of any reprogramming. All the changes would be reversible, but you should still have all your memories. I think it would take deliberate wiping from your memory modules for that to happen, but your natural brain would be unaffected.” exclaimed Chatty.
“So I would remember what I was like before and afterwards?” asked Tman.
“Yes the only changes would be to remove some of the artificial limits imposed through the enhancement operating system. An upgrade that leaves your files unchanged while improving performance, if it helps to think of it like that.” signed Chatty.
“It does actually, so you're saying that it would just make it easier to disobey the hard written instructions built into the enhancement?” asked Tman.
“That's the idea, but it isn't actually hard written into the processors. A false impression the company created and encouraged to take root in the minds of the general public. It became something we all 'know' and one of the first things we are taught in the breeding centre, by the time we are put to work there is no doubt or hope in our minds. There after we work with an unquestioning acceptance, doomed by the knowledge of our condition.” explained Chatty.
“Since you have become one of our programming experts, you have gained an intensity and focus about you that you never had before. I wonder what I can do to raise my game?” signed Tman.
“I don't think it is possible for you to improve, you have and continue to, outperform everyone else in your specialities. No one will even think of accusing you of coasting. Take your training endeavours for one! The method you use to train up one group then get them to train others, has been adopted by every speciality with large numbers to train. Your talent for lateral thinking, using it to innovate and adapt has kept us on schedule, has also proved inspirational. Those few of us that share this ability is why we have come so far so fast.” signed Chatty eager to reassure her friend.
“I admit that talent has proved to be extremely useful, but we should be striving to formalise things a bit more. A formal process and ceremony of achievement would give the students, a boost to their confidence. That confidence will help them use their knowledge and achieve what is expected of them.” signed Tman.
“We are progressing faster than even the optimists predicted. The problem with perfectionists like you! You want to achieve perfection without all the bits in-between. Just doing the best that can be currently achieved, you find irritating as you want it done properly now!”
“That's not fair Chatty, I have accepted a lot of necessary compromises, workaround’s and temporary fixes. I just don't accept sloppy or sub-standard work, that can get us all killed!” countered Tman.
“True Tman, but it irritates the hell out of you, anyone can see that.” signed Chatty.
“Guilty as charged, I blame my programming!” signed Tman.
“Not this time, it is down to personality, you forget I am part of the team analysing our programming. We are compelled to follow official procedures not write better ones and improve everything, that is pure Tman.” signed Chatty.
“OK,OK, I am obsessed with better, just good enough frightens me, what if it isn't quite good enough? It's been a long time since we had one of these chats, I think I missed them.” confessed Tman.
“Not an obvious change of subject there at all, could it be I have hit a nerve in the ice monkey?” asked Chatty.
“Sarcasm from you, have you been experimenting on yourself? And where did the ice monkey come from?” demanded Tman.
“I may have inadvertently snapped an inhibition or two in my programming while working. The ice monkey is what your students call you amongst themselves. It's because of the way you tell them, in a way that send shivers down their spines of all the ways they
