    anyone here deal with people at work who seem to be enamored with making your life difficult?

    on a daily basis i deal with a supplier of ours, and there's a manager there who's a major bitch. today i asked her a question about the system they provide us and she says:

    "here's the answer. also, it seems that we've answered this question before, so let's keep our duplicate questions to a minimum."

    wtf bitch? i'm nothing but cordial to you, and you use this tone with me like "hey fgt, stop asking us repeat questions" as if I asked you the question 5 minutes ago? just answer the fucking question instead of being a bitch about it.

    (apparently this question was answered via email in June 2007, so...it's been some time and easily forgotten when there are many other issues going on. excuse me for forgetting.)

    Also on a telecon earlier today, she was clearly unhappy with the topic of discussion and interrupted the telecon 5 times to say, "Okay, are we done now?"

    wtf are you a little kid? GOD. WTF PEOPLE. It's so much easier if you work together with someone rather than be difficult just for the sake of being difficult. We all have our issues and priorities at work, but there's no need to be an asshole unless your name is octaclicker or windows is shutting down guy.
