Many moons ago I used to work as an IT consultant and whilst I always called the truth as I saw it I got into the habit of using a qualifier. My girlfriend was always telling me off for prefacing everything with 'I suspect...' Old habits die hard I guess.
Great input from you all.

This post was funny BF, I work in a helpdesk/consultant role over the phone but the challenges are much the same as IT really. I often, even before I started watching the market would always throw a slight disclaimer in there to cover myself on calls. In the technology industry you kind of have to since you often have only a partial picture from the customer.

Good thing too, it carries over well to the market since we often have a bias that can be upset by one sideline participant coming in and changing the game for us.
