RE: dealing with inflated ego

[Slager Timothy J <Timothy -dot- Slager -at- dematic -dot- com>]

For what it's worth, Elisa, if I were a manager having read this thread, I'd hire you. Your ability to respond graciously to criticism and to cooperate with and appreciate someone who did some annoying overstepping is a credit.

Subject: Re: dealing with inflated ego

Thanks!

Truth be told that since the time that I posted my rant I have been able to
discuss issues with the person involved and we have come up with good
solutions. If he now had access to the entire discussion in this forum, he
might find it of passing  interest but he'd probably move on quickly to
things that interest him more. :-)

I don't feel a need to describe the entire situation except to say that
there were misunderstandings that went further than misunderstanding
between the two of us, that they came to light fairly quickly, and that I'm
back to focusing on the work at hand.

I am grateful for the support that I got from this forum, and I don't plan
to post additional rants here.

And, I do love writers!
