Someone is going down

So, I have this coworker. Long story short, I hate him. Numerous reasons, but overall, he is a meat head, full of 'roid rage, self-centered, egotistical, resistant to change,and difficult to work with (you may find his picture at the bottom of this page). He tries to be a bully when he thinks he's being wronged, which is often.

We have had a few run-ins, mainly surrounding the 5K his department holds. They are inconsistent with their processing of donations and sponsorships, so we have asked for that to run through me, since that's my job (not to mention if the money is funneled through the hospital and not the Foundation, it is not tax deductible for the donor). They are inconsistent with their marketing, so we have asked for that to run through the marketing department. Their idea of including us is letting us do *** work and not the actual work we need to be doing, like processing donations and design work. The  lack of communication is astounding and we get in arguments on a regular basis.

This jerk is also on my Foundation Board. He teaches old lady exercise classes so he is somewhat valuable. However, he is extremely unprofessional and does not attend most meetings, did not submit a required form for board commitment or his dues until Friday, when I made one of the other board members ask him because he had ignored at least 4 requests from me (only 2 are documented, sadly).

Okay, long background, but here is what made me mad today:

Meat head (via email):

Hey Melissa!
Just wanted to ask about the foundation letter.  I don't remember ever getting one?  Is that something that gets mailed out or inner-office to me?  Marcia mentioned it this morning.  Just checking.  Could you please send me a copy?
Thanks.
 
Me:
 
Are you talking about the newsletter? It just went out last Thursday in the mail. It was the first one we?ve ever done. I thought you were on the mailing list but maybe not! I will get one out to you via regular mail.
 
MH:
 
That must be it.  Like I said Marcia mentioned it to me, but I didn't know what she was talking about, told her I didn't get it.
I definitely need to be getting that if I'm paying dues and am a board member.
 
Me:
 

I agree completely! I think the reason we missed you on the mailing list was because we didn?t get your time and talent form immediately after you were voted in as a member. Sorry about that; you?ve been added!

Take that, sucka!!!!!!!!!!!!
