Well. At last I know.

ysobelleYou know, before I joined the Guild, I knew there WERE "he said/she said" people out there, but I just didn't KNOW any of them. Once I moved out of Largo and BARF-- or maybe it's just once I hit a certain age-- I just didn't have the high-school-mentality people around me.
Now, of course, I see it all the time. Once in a while, it even takes a swipe at me. Thanks, but no.
I got a message this morning that, it seems, the cause of the furious phone call and the nasty IM was that this person heard from someone who heard from someone else that someone who bought a corset of mine years ago had said it didn't hold up. Understand that the person who contacted me no longer speaks to the person who bought the corset, and refuses to tell me who the intermediary was. I'm not really worried, as the corset was made out of an unsuitable material, and we knew it wasn't holding up, and we were both upset, but we're still friends. If she wants me to fix it, I will. In other words, everything's fine, and it's no one else's business. The irate person also took a stab at me in my capacity as Guild Rep for PA, saying it was that role that kept me from dealing with the situation. I think. Her logic was...well, rather flawed.
Is there any point in saying no, I didn't respond to her cos I don't answer nasty voicemails, and it's difficult to respond to an IM when the person who sends it signs off immediately afterwards? Is there any point in pointing out that my Guild position has NOTHING to do with my business? Is there even the slightest point in explaining to her it's absolutely none of her business in any way, shape, or form? I'm guessing it'd fall on willfully deaf ears.
Sigh.
Lars told me once that I, like several Wenches he knew, would be ideal for Grande Madame, because I didn't want the post. I laughed then, but boy, was he right. What is it about some women?
