because of course she won't do it now.
because of the way i spoke to her on the phone.
because she will be trying to teach me a lesson - that how I spoke to her (keeping the message short and simple as possible so there can be absolutely no confusion about what it was that i needed from her and about just how much i needed / wanted that done) is not the way to get things done.
in other words:
she has decided (all by herself - how is that for 'initiative') that teaching me a lesson (will be how she sees it) is more important than her doing her job. you know, according to the job description of what it is that she is supposed to do.
and somehow this makes me the bad guy.
also note: me consumer. her: mental health 'professional'.
and that is f*ck*ng awesome, huh.
but of course my goal was to get her to f*ck*ng do it already. not show this new team just how incompetent she is - that would be being distracted and stooping to her level, somewhat. so... how could i have conducted myself differently in order to maximize the chances of her doing her f*ck*ng job instead of purposely trying to make my life harder?
see... there are trade-offs between people hearing the message and people actually acting in accordance. i mean... if i ask all nicely people often don't understand what i'm asking for. if i say what i want and why i want it and pretty pretty f*ck*ng please and smile then people coo and smile and later it turns out that they were so taken by the cooing and smiling that their brain f*rt*d that message right back out and they didn't actually get the message that they were supposed to do any f*ck*ng thing at all.
but if i keep it short and simple then people don't f*ck*ng do it. they object to the short and simple message.
i'm tempted to suspect that these people are basically incompetent idiots and they are full of excuses. but apparently this is my problem... it is my problem... because while i can indeed follow through on things showing a bunch of people just how f*ck*ng incompetent she is - that doesn't get me seen any faster by others. so in my own interests...
what do i do?
