A town councillor just came in and yelled at me

[HEyHEY]

I did a story about how council decided not to meet with a group opposed to Coalbed Methane mining until the BC government gave them a reply to their letter of concern. As well, the town ALSO refused to take a stance on the mining project in Town.
So, the one councillor that is against it all came in to bitch to me abou it and I did the story. The premis was the one rogue councillor says the other councillors are ignoring their responsibilities to the town.

So, I guess all the other councillors are pissed, so this ass came in and yelled at me.

I don't work PR for city council and I don't sit on my ass when they neglect their duties, so they can go fuck themselves.

I wish I had yelled at him, but that's not professional.

Sidenote: Right after one of our fucking clueless office workers says "Do you want any of these brownies?"

Yeah, I just get reamed out and told council was after my ass and I wanna know about brownies - fucking moron.

2. Dude, office food has an importance above all work

Office food is precious! Didn't you grab a brownie?

[HEyHEY]

5. No - I have no Brownie interests

3. The brownie contained secret Methane files she was trying to pass you.

And you blew it. Next time you notice a woman passing methane, the polite thing to do is acknowledge it.

4. Food is comforting

I ate a whole bag of leftover halloween candy on Nov.3

But I'm sorry you had to deal with such a shitty little prick who acts like a big crazy-assed baby in need of a diaper change.

[HEyHEY]

7. I'm so mad, they don't know who they're dealing with

I'm the last reporter you want to try to intimidate. I'm leaving next week for a new job. PLUS he's got my Irish up.

[Kurovski]

8. Anger is good for a reporter.

as long as it doesn't knock the good sense out of you.

Holy shit, you didn't say anything before about being Irish!

Planning anything good for a farewell?

[HEyHEY]

10. If I say it I'll get arrested

Let's just say I don't like this town

[Kurovski]

15. Damn, you ARE Irish!

You got me scared.

Again, I'm sorry.

But my guess is if you were less of a reporter, you would never even have had to face such an irresponsible outburst.

Kind of like the price for being good at what you do, or at least the price these days.

6. like gore vidal once said

"i know my work isn't successful unless it's offended SOMEONE"

[JVS]

9. You nogoodnik hippy!

Straighten up and fly right. :-)

[HEyHEY]

12. This Motherfucker is soo going down

I hope they say something at the next council meeting or try to not allow me to enter. I'll fucking call the CAJ (Canadian Association of Journalists) and EVERY other reporter I know in the area and have them all converge on council.

[redqueen]

11. If they're mad at you

that must mean you're doing something right.

Coulda saved a brownie for me, at least. :(

[WannaJumpMyScooter]

13. should have sat down, put your feet up on a desk and pretended

not to hear it. That drives them crazy!

[HEyHEY]

14. What gets me is this guy and I were okay before this

We've always gotten along, and suddenly he can't be polite about a complaint?

[Kurovski]

18. Maybe you should ask him why?

Maybe he'll apologise?

[HEyHEY]

19. Nah, he's on my list of mother fuckers now

Plus, I'm outta here soon

[democracyindanger]

16. Maybe the brownies

were her way of saying, "Just another day's work."

Don't get mad. Sounds like you have reason to celebrate.

[fishnfla]

17. you must be doing something right

ifn he is pissed.

Right then, good job!

[HEyHEY]

20. Drunk barber says I should kick his ass!
