mousmeDear Credit!Guy,
Okay, asshat. You have officially messed with the wrong girl. You cannot expect to play passive-aggressive mind games with me and expect to win. I learned from the best, and your Passive-Aggression Fu is so weak by comparison it doesn't even register on the scales.
We need you to authorise the overdrafts every single day. Or not authorise them, I don't care. But you know and I know that you must, must, must answer within 24 hours or else we can't refuse the clients' checks, and then all the important credit stuff you hold so dear goes down the toilet.
Last time you and I had this little exchange, you claimed that you signed all the authorisations but, to your great astonishment, they didn't magically mail themselves. Once you figured out that you had to put them in the internal mail system yourself, things went better for a few days.
Then you stopped sending them again. I decided to be lenient. Maybe there was another "problem" with the mail. I let a week go by, then ten days. After ten days, I decided enough was enough, and I sent you another email.
Instead of replying to tell me what went wrong, you sent a snarky email asking where our follow-up on two files was, and stating that you'd refused it a long time ago. News to me, buddy. So I brought out the big guns, and Boss!Lady called you. You then snarkily informed her that you already sent the authorisations from ten days ago (which is a bloody lie, since I have received nothing. Either that, or you're an even bigger asshat than I thought and you can't even address an internal mail envelope properly. If that's the case, God help you, because no one else can.), and that you PURPOSEFULLY kept back the latest two, to see how long it would take us to react.
How do I put this politely?
Blow me.
You want to play passive-aggressive with me? Fine. I can do that. I can do it waaaaay better than you can, and guess what? I have NOTHING better to do with my time than to harass you every. single. fucking. day. about the overdrafts. By the time we're done, you will RUE the day you decided to play petty power games with me. I will make it my personal mission in life to email you twice a day and leave phone messages, each more polite than the last, "encouraging" you to send the overdraft authorisations to me. If I don't receive them in the internal mail in the morning, you will hear from me. I will contact you as I am faxing the authorisation requests by email and by phone if needs be.
You think playing power games with the department is fun? You have fucked with a secretary, buddy. Big, big mistake. Secretaries can be your best friends or your worst enemies: we hold the keys to the filing system, the message system, and the internal mail system. We fucking RUN this bank.
In short, dear Credit!Guy, you are completely, utterly fucked, and it's all your own doing.
No love,
Me
