no I don’t hate you, but wait, yes, I do

April 9th, 2007 | by the insider |

There’s an editor who I work with who, no matter how I phrase my emails, thinks I am attacking her to her very core.

She drives me batshit.

I have been dealing with her for months, but today, today I figured out how to deal with her.

I sent an email that actually did attack her.

Or rather, simply stated, “Look, I’m busy too. And this is for your magazine, so you better help me.”

So she apologized and agreed and said please and yada, yada.

Then, of course, not two seconds after I started typing this damn post, she emailed again saying, “Oh I don’t do that, and I do this and this and this.”

Honest to god, I want to smack her.

I make suggestions… they are NICE… I am exceedingly pleasant… yet no matter what, she always takes the defensive.

What the hell?

She’s from India. Could it be a cultural thing?

Anybody?

    maybe it’s not a cultural thing. maybe it’s just that she’s a bitch.

    A bitchy Indian is more like it. We live with plenty of them in the Pacific NW & I can not stand them or Asians. They are sooo RUDE & think we owe them something.
