Here's an example:

Boss: "Hey, thanks for getting that client sorted out!"

Me: "No prob. Wasn't too bad because I just modified the JSP with a <c:choose> block to check the organization variable to see if the specific client was clicking the referral form so I could show the custom fields, but just so you're aware, this is only scaleable to an extent. We can keep modding the JSP but at some point we need a real solution from the app developers for client-specific requirements, as this can get out of hand. But hey, I documented the changes and we can do "now" solutions for the foreseeable future until the cows come home, but do get on the horn with the third party at some point because what I'm doing isn't even in my job description."
