_tsk_. Gentlemen. Daniel’s right. There’s really no reason for this quarrelling. Bickering serves no purpose, and neither of you needs to sink to this level. **Lute** , your comment was pretty easy to misconstrue and came off as a bit rude, but as long as **Pedro** wasn’t offended, that’s all that matters. **mhendo** , we’re usually on the opposite sides of arguments when we debate, but I do recognize that you’re very capable of defending your position without the need to resort to petty insults. As far as the office goes: I cannot tell you all how much work I got done yesterday. It was bliss. 😛 ---

Wait, when does she come back? Isn’t her suspension up? What will happen next? Any chance you can hire a new assistant and fob her off elsewhere where she won’t hurt anyone? ---

TC will probably get a promotion to a position where she can do the least damage. Unfortunately for everyone else, it might come with a hefty raise… ---

You are _evil_ **ivylass**! Do you hear me? _EVIL!_ Fob her off elsewhere. Make her somebody else’s headache. That’s just so **EVIL!** Unfortunately, nutjob sounds like on of those people who will be a PITA no matter where she goes. The only way to stop someone like that is to give em the boot. Then and only then will **Maureen** know peace at work. Well, peace until the next nutjob shows up. 😃 ---

She comes back tomorrow. Which ruins a perfectly good Friday, but I expect an apology (I won’t demand one, don’t want one and won’t believe it when it happens, but I do expect it) and a very quiet TC who will go out of her way to do everything “by the book.” IOW, white mutiny. I’ve been trying to get **Jaade** out here to take the admin support spot, but she’s apparently allergic to California. **swampbear** , evil she is, but that’s why I like her. 😉 **BBVL** , bite your tongue. ---

That’s the problem–I can’t find it. I can’t even find an earlier remark I thought I made regarding you and cites, which is why I suspect I have the wrong person. ---

> [@Lute Skywatcher](#): > > Aha! **mhendo** , my sincerest apologies. I had you confused with **milroyj**. Well, despite your apology, you have officially just insulted me more completely than anyone on this board has ever managed before. Confusing me with **milroyj**? I never thought i’d be so humiliated. 🙂 Seriously: no harm done, and i regret my intemperate remarks also. Now maybe we can just go back to agreeing about what an idiot **Maureen** ’s co-worker is. ---

Woohoo!! Good to see ya, lady! You need to come around more often. The coworker, of course. We all know what happened to you, and any recent insanity I place squarely on your husband’s shoulders. 😉 Detroit. Interesting…I had envisioned a whole “Kalifornia” type lifestyle for her. Sans Brad Pitt, of course. _Married_? I forget. She is completely and totally unable to conceive, right? Isn’t she the one who had the hysterectomy? Please say yes. > [@](#): > > I have nothing to say here that hasn’t already been said, but to recap: > > 1. I love this thread! > 2. Why does this nutball have a job anywhere? > 3.
