> There are times (rare) when treating someone too gently allows them to walk all over us. There are times when ... I'd like to be able be more direct and say "YOU are being mean. What you're doing is completely unacceptable." ... I know I can't do it and I know Dr.B would disagree with me. One could say that he's taking care of that by giving out PBCs and blocks. But I still feel frustrated.
I do try to take care of that, but I know it can be frustrating to have to wait, or for me not to respond the way you think I should.
BTW, this was the kind of situation in which deputy administrators can really help a lot, and there are openings right now, please see:
