Oh, silly Communication

Update:

I have, in better judgement a couple weeks later, pulled the text of the email.

Let the following thus be known:
I do not respect people who do not respect me. If you make an enemy of me, I will do everything in my power to hurt your feelings.

I find it intriguing that a graduate-level representative of the Communication department would have the outright audacity to cite our policy when she herself is so fond of leaving eight or more thousand dollars of equipment laying around unattended.

Later, I called her out on it. Since then, she has waited with the equipment, but only with the biggest chip on her shoulder one could possibly imagine.

Even better than her not wanting policy to work against her, I'm pretty sure she reported my office's "misconduct" to the chair of the department. I haven't had a problem with the faculty, nor do I think I will: most of them seem nice enough. Both the graduate student and myself will be finished here in a lot less time than it would take to have everyone at this office fired. Just FYI.

Oh, and next time you take the time out of your oh-so-busy schedule to yell at me about how absurdly terrible our service is, please reconsider signing any follow-up messages with "Best" or "Kind" regards. Oh, and for the sake of communication, please respond to the messages that ask whether you will need stuff in the future because you didn't tell us you cancelled classes.

Got all that?
