Sorry this is happening to you. Just out of curiosity, did you reference/show the scheduler in Case 1 the chain of emails (to absolutely prove they gave contradictory advice, in case they were relying only on memory and making an honest error of recollection)? If so, and he/she still acted that way, then I'd agree that was unprofessional and unfriendly...etc. (etc. = they might have psychological or other issues).@BusyBeeBuzzBuzzBuzz wrote:
Everybody makes mistakes. I know I do. I don't know why some schedulers just won't admit it when they err. Some of them double down and make things worse.

BusyBee, so sorry that happened to you. I've had similar things happen over the years. Some schedulers seem to think they hold life and death in their hands. Not easy to brush off and go on when you know you are right and they are wrong, but sometimes that's all you can do.

It’s true. Some people don’t like to be criticized. If you point out their mistakes in a mean way, they will probably get hostile.

@OP: That is irritating and frustrating. I know it well. hmmph. Meanwhile, may I make a wee suggestion? Try to find other gigs. If you can add something else, you might find more pleasant conditions and get by with fewer of these frustrating events in your life.

@SS4U Don't mind 007. They are upset at me because they PM'd me to ask me to send them my MS report and I pointed out I would not because that would violate my ICA with the MSC. They took offense that I also pointed out that I did not need their help. In response, they PM'd me again and called me a "Karen."

It's true. For example, if a shopper who is completely unknown to you sends you a PM and offers to give you feedback on your report if you will send it to them, and you respond that you don't need their feedback and that you won't break your ICA by sending them your report, they may become hostile and call you "Karen." They may also post a hostile response to your post on a different topic.
Your approach/actions are disagreeable right now, 007. It's one thing to offer "help" to someone in doing reports, but if they decline (esp. for good and legitimate reason if in violation of ICA, but realize it can be awkward too if they don't know you...I wouldn't accept either), then it's best to leave it at that. No need to name call and no need to accuse them of coming off badly in a separate thread.@007 wrote:

Take a step back, think of your actions, and realize you're in the wrong.
