Well said!
Um, I think.
Not sure, actually. :)
I remember how hurt I was when Jim pulled a thread of mine about ten years ago. He said “We don’t need this.”
For a few minutes I was hurt and stunned. I left my keyboard and went out to a meeting. When I got back I got a thank you from someone involved. It put it all in perspective and I let it go.
It’s still a good approach.
