Well, G sent me another email which sounds like he's not really mad so I'm a bit more calm about it. I just didn't appreciate his tone in the first email. If he had used smilies, I'm sure it would've contained the little fuming mad ones. But now he's calm and so am I. Now I can get back to doing work. Yes, work is what I should be doing. *sigh*
I'm sorry to hear G is giving you such trouble. Team leads who get bent out of shape over what they perceive as their power and authority slipping are awful. I'll bet that's what it's about, anyway. And it isn't cool. He could have informed you in a calm professional manner.
Usually I'm reasonable in reacting to things like that, but days like today I really don't have the energy to play the office "make sure your boss looks good" game. Feh.
Bloating is okay as long as it's done in moderation.
I would substitute the beer with wine. Mmmm wine. I had a glass last night just to relax after work.
My coworker L came up to me and apologized for being partly at fault for the whole email thing yesterday since he's the one that told me to hold off on G's request because he needed to do some testing. Anyway, he pointed out that he came back from lunch and saw the email getting snottier and he felt bad. So, there you go, I didn't just read into G's email. And today he invited everyone but me to go to lunch. I can't stand him. I wish I could work with other people. *sigh*
