I'm so happy to be out of the loop! Lol

I'm so happy to be IN the loop ::::::
As soon as I read it I said "Welp ... here we go again" ::::::

Blackcat is one of the most fair and level headed women ever.
If she's ever ticked....it's for VERY good reason.

Aw thanks.... lovethis

Has it been 28 days, already. :confused: ::

Hmm, now that you mention it, I reckon it has been about that time.... ::

OP, face to face is generally the best way unless you are creating a paper trail for termination because you suspect they will take it to small claims.

:: you haven't been around long enough....

There have been times when there has been lots of drama here (on the forum) and a lot of posters that don't get along well. There have been times where there has been zero drama too.... it's no different than any other work place.


I don't normally take my frustrations out openly but the poster can't receive PM's as unregistered so...

HAHA very true! I just hope I stay on your good side!!

BC, someone has surely ticked you off!! I don't see anything in this thread prompting it though and am confused, do you know something we don't?

OK Fine, don't tell me
I didn't realize you guys knew each other on here, much less had ongoing rivalries. Woah...

Yep.

[Mummy101]

In some cases/situations, I certainly do.

But I also think having multiple user names, fake accounts, feigning ignorance, profiting from someone else's work and lying is passive aggressive too but what do I know?

Is this related to your driveway blocking dad? If so I'd just have a face to face conversation with him and ask him directly to park correctly.

If a bunch of people are doing the same thing I'd probably do up a letter, but also speak to the individuals directly.

It can be, ...even unintentionally, if you write it while upset. I did this just the other day! ::

Personally, I writhe at the thought of even the slightest bit of confrontation, sooo I resort to letter writing.

And YES 100% I am pretty sure they all "take it personally" or see it as a witchy thing to do even though that is never my intention and I am just trying to enforce my policies.

I have to work on my backbone, and the letter writing only perpetuates my problem. If I just spoke to them directly, they would probably respect me more and in turn, follow my rules to begin with!

[Blackcat31]

I am not one to engage in passive aggressive behavior and prefer to use my words.

I think the message is understood better when spoken directly to someone.
