Too lazy to give it? Or what?

I also get enraged when a term with 100 context-dependent possibilities is asked with no context, but Arthur states he sometimes gives \'insufficient\' context. This can happen when you think you have provided enough context (since it is clear to you) but it inadvertently turns out that it is not enough for your colleagues. This can happen to all of us. And from what I\'ve seen of him on ProZ, Arthur may be a bit laidback (an approach worth trying-laidback translators live longer) but he is most definitely not lazy! ▲ Collapse
