Have you ever met a person that you strongly dislike? You know, one of those people about whom you can’t think of anything nice to say?
Chances are that they can’t think of anything nice to say about you either, because you can’t remember a single positive interaction with them. Sure, you can remember the interactions that ruined your day, the times they withheld the information you needed to do your job, the times they “corrected” your writing and either made things inconsistent (e.g., the number of spaces after a period) or just wrong (e.g., created a number noun disagreement), and all the many, many times they corrected and re-corrected (see: contradicted the original “correction”) you.
There’s only one thing stopping you declaring a full out battle royal – after 15 months of dealing with this person you can’t figure out if they’re fucking with you on purpose or if they are so overwhelmed/disorganized/anal retentive/unaware of their own management style (see: alternating absentee and micromanagement) that you happen to be an innocent bystander in the tsunami that keeps beating down their door.
Yeah. I don’t know a person like this either.
