And the Skeletons of CHAT Call Me Home
Welcome to the Daily Chat.
Given the recent track record, I guess I'll be waiting for a while until Chat warms up...

Original Post by lilsammi23: I was assuming there's context to his request that we're not privy to that makes it less innocuous of a request....or Runey is overreacting to a simple, legitimate request that she perceives as someone encroaching on her turf. Makes me wonder if she used to do whatever job this is on her own and now does not appreciate the fact that the dude is involved somehow.

Original Post by kathygator: You can't honestly tell us that's how you'd enter such a request with an adder like that, can you?
Nope, but I've certainly received equally poorly-worded requests -- especially in the age of the blackberry.
Runey's let us know there's a lot more going on here than meets the eye, however.
I thought you'd already found your stud? He wander off on his own again and you need your tracking collar to find him?

Momma the email he's bugging me about will go to the customer with a bunch of people cc'd. He's bugged me about this daily for 2 weeks, email and phone calls, and this is the final straw. I need to reply only to him saying, I've told you you'll get it when you get it, back off. That's the email I need to copy my boss into.

I hope that you've been accumulating evidence against the schmuck for when the time is right to bring in HR.
To share a happy note:
In December we held our annual animal shelter fundraiser. I totally changed it this year and had a small boutique and sold paw prints instead of collecting food. I told my boss I wanted to set a goal and put a meter in the window. She disagreed and said we should just be happy with what we got. Well I set a goal and did the meter anyway and we did it! I set a goal of $1000 and we raised $1043 for the shelter. 
(I don't know why I saw WE, I do all the work)

Dear dill,
I know how important this email is and I appreciate that you are anxious about it, however, your constant emails and phone calls regarding it are not helping me finish my work any faster. I am taking care of the issue and will be finished shortly. Per your request, I will be happy to cc you on the email when it is sent.
Thank you,
Runey

I keep getting calls from the Mexican border asking me to come pick up my fiance. It's weird. :D
Okay, off to hang hooks. *crosses fingers that they're not crooked since that will make me go insane*
Dear coworker,
F Off.

Heh. I do have to say that closing the response with "fyvm" did cross my mind.
Chat's corrupted me.
*hungry*
This.
I keep hearing Runey tell the dillhole "You're a dick, buddy!" in a Terrence and Phillip voice.

I am taking care of the issue and, per your multiple requests, I will, as I have repeatedly said, be happy to cc you on the email when it is sent.
Thank you,

Slight bedit. Don't give him any hint of a time line. ;)
Ditto.
