You just have to realize that when someone asks you to do something that they think is simple, there are really about six dozen undiscovered requirements that lie in situations they haven't thought about. You also have to realize that words like "always" and "never" are usually followed by a silent "except when..."
A good programmer anticipates these situations and brings them to light early.
