Dear Poison Dwarf,

You have apparently lost your mind.  After what you did to me this afternoon I have come to the conclusion that you are mentally unstable and somewhat deranged.

I'm not basing my opinion on just this afternoon's little incident.  I'm basing it on your consistent behaviour over the past few weeks.

You seem to have my husband's role a little confused.  You're mistaking him for someone who gives a fuck about you...you seem to think that he's your substitute husband, your boyfriend, your significant other.  You don't seem to understand that you WORK for him, and that's where your association ends.  He's not your supervisor, compadre, or even your acquaintance.  He doesn't care about what you do on your time off, he only cares that you show up to work and do what you're told to do.  You are not his equal, you are not his peer.  He outranks you, and you really should remember that.

You should also take what he tells you seriously.  You should listen when he tells you that he doesn't care what you think of him, that he's really not interested in your opinion.  He's not.  You, m'dear, are a pain in his ass.  When he comes home from work, he complains about you.  He doesn't like you, and he's slightly incredulous that you think he's there to take care of you.  He's also slightly irritated that you think you can run the show in his office.  You're not there because you're good at your job, honey.  You're there because you have issues and your unit didn't know where else to put you.  So, get any delusions of grandeur out of your head, and get them out quickly - before someone else has to remove them for you.

Speaking of delusions.....lets talk about your attitude towards me, shall we?  I don't know who the heck you think you are, but I'm here to tell you that if you ever speak to me the way you spoke to me this afternoon again I'm going to go to your superintendent and complain.  You had no reason to be rude to me the way you were.....you knew damn well who I am.   You not only were rude, you were disrespectful too.  Bad idea.  See, my husband's loyaties lie firmly with me.  With ME, and with his kids.  Not with you.  Not even a little bit.  You shouldn't have done that to me, or to him.  See, it wasn't just me you were rude to, it was him as well.  So, when he told you not to do that anymore, he wasn't just talking about not doing that to me.  He was talking about not doing that again, period.

You've made a mistake in making an enemy out of me, chickie.  I'm on a first name basis with everyone in your department.  I've got a good rapport with them, they know me.  They also know my husband, and the kind of relationship we have.  They know that I've done a lot in the name of his job, that both he and I have gone above and beyond to facilitate his duty needs.  If I were to go to your superintendent and complain about you, he wouldn't just look at me like I was jealous.  He'd know that something had happened, that you'd been out of line somehow. 

You could have had me in your corner, honey.  All of the other chicks that he's worked with in the past have had me on their side. Heck, I even went and partied with those girls.  Not you, though.  You've suceeded where others have failed.  You've not only irritated my husband, but you've irritated me too, and it really takes a lot to do that.

So, let's go over this again so's you don't forget it, shall we?  My husband does not give a fuck about what you do away from the office.  He's not your friend, your buddy, your pal.  He's not your husband, fiancee, significant other.  He's not even your supervisor or your peer.  He's the guy you work FOR, not with.  You don't need to call him at home to tell him how you're feeling, because he doesn't care.  You don't need to treat his wife like shit, because not only does that piss him off, it pisses me off....and being married yourself, you should know that if a man's wife isn't happy, he's not going to be happy either. 

You need to check your attitude at the door, and do your fucking job.  Don't try to be his friend, his confidante.  Don't try to usurp me.

Are we clear?

Adrian's squad leader is like that. She's completely undependable when it comes to her actual duties to help him, but she's always calling to see if he needs to "talk" or "needs anything".

She annoys him. She kind of kisses up to me, and I play nice, but she annoys me too.

During PLDC she was responsible for bringing him the stuff he needed. She couldn't get her head out of her ass to get him the right kind of protractor, but I managed to round up most of what he requested.

He didn't bother calling her when he needed stuff...he'd call me and let me deal with her. Haha, he said he didn't want to waste a quarter calling her.

Anyways, sounds like Poison Dwarf is about to find out exactly where Dave's allegiances are, and it's not going to be pretty. Stupid girl.

That's where Poison Dwarf went wrong. She kisses up to him, but is rude to me. If she'd kissed up to me I'd have done the same thing and played nice...but she didn't.

He told her this afternoon to not treat me or him like that, so she knows. He's also been telling her all along that he's not her friend and not to mistake him for someone who cares...but she's not listening. You know how wives had that gut instinct about other women? I had that about her. I told Dave that I thought she wass flirting with him, and he told me I was crazy. After today, though....he's starting to see why I thought that.

I feel so bad for Dave. He's having a hard time at work right now...this is making it worse.

Not if you feel better.  A new screen is cheap.  High BP is not.

Dang... glad I'm not her. She'd better watch her step. The wrath of Dharma CAN'T be pretty. You go, girl!

D-

Don't ya just love the ho-ho's who think they are such a tasty treat our husbands can't do without them?

Once when I went to my husband's office...and I think it's important to make an appearance now and again to let people know you are alive....but I went, and while I was sitiing in his office a woman who worked for him came and stood outside the door....now I noticed this woman when I entered the building because she was in a coversation with another woman and talking loudly about my husband. She was using his first name, which he NEVER allows.....anyhoo..he has a front entrance to his office but she would have to get through the secretaries to see him.....he has his own entrance to the hallway right off his office and kept the door open for circulation. She stood by the hallway door listening to every word we said. So I walked over, gave her direct eye contact and shut the door in her face.

Then I did something I am utterly ashamed of....well, kinda. I started laughing and carrying on like my husband and I were getting busy!! heheheh. My husband just looked at me like I was retarded, when he finally caught on he said, "Why are you faking? Get over here!"

So after awhile I left through the front office door, and looked down the hall. She was still standing there LISTENING. I smiled and gave my husband a great big smacker for good measure. He pinched my butt as I was leaving.

Juvenile? Yup, yup. But when it comes to other women and your man........better mark that territory right off. Most men don't mind a little pee on their leg!!!

I know! This chick's married...but her husband is deployed.  I don't know if she's trying to replace him with mine or what!

Once when I went to my husband's office...and I think it's important to make an appearance now and again to let people know you are alive

That's exactly what I do.  I don't go up there every day, and I don't go hang out for no reason.  I go when we're meeting for lunch or when I'm helping him out with work, and when I'm there I make a point of talking to the superintendent and the ops officer.  They all know me from my working over at legal anyway.  It's just nice to be able to sick my head in and have people ask me how I am, what I've been up to etc...and it's also good to be seen because it gives people the impression that you give a shit about your husband's career.

She was using his first name, which he NEVER allows.....

It hasn't come to that yet, but Dave's already said that she had better NEVER do that.  He outranks her by a fair bit - it would be a very bad thing for her to do.  I'd better never hear her doing it either.  It implies familiarity, which is exactly what the beeatch in your husband's office wanted.

 

But when it comes to other women and your man........better mark that territory right off. Most men don't mind a little pee on their leg!!!

That's right, sistah!  Good for you for staking your claim!  I guess that's what I've been trying to discreetly do this past week, and discreet obviously isn't working. 

 

y screen melted down AND the a/c came on and hasn't shut off yet

Yeah, I guess I did get a little hot about it, huh? 

 

The wrath of Dharma CAN'T be pretty.

I think that had I looked her in the eye when I was writing that she'd have combusted and burned to ash in a nanosecond.  Oh, how I wish that would have happened......(kidding.  I don't wish her any physical harm, I just want her to leave him and me alone.  And apologize.  And kiss my shoes.  After I've been kicking dog poo around in them.)

I dint mess things up between me and you did I?

Now why would you think that Elie?  Because of the mailing address thing?  Don't be silly.  If I was offended by that I'd have told you.  I'm not, I totally understand your reluctance...especially because you've had a horrible experience in the past.  It's cool, so don't worry about it.

A new screen is cheap. High BP is not.

This is very true.
