Unpleasant

I’ve just experienced the most unpleasant exchange of e-mail I’ve ever had. The details are of no interest to anyone other than myself and the other party, and I’d say nothing about them or that person even if they were. It shall suffice to say that I was physically shaking with anger by the end of my last message; anyone who’s had any dealings with me knows it takes a lot to make me lose my cool. I can only remember being upset to that extent twice, or perhaps three times, in my 31 years, and it’s not an experience I relish.

I’m proud, at least, that I was able to keep my response professional and polite while conveying the depth of my displeasure in no uncertain terms.
