有些事情，晚来了，但还是来了。

有过很期待的时候，有过不肯罢休的时候，有过耍狠甚至要挟的时候，但真的来的时候，就自然而然，欣然接受。

忽然整理文件夹，发现几年以前，我的一个line manager回复我的一个邮件。当时，为了这封邮件，我曾理直气壮地和老板要求TA道歉，否则我不会多和TA工作一秒钟。

do not quite understand your translation. Is this a game of “Correct where there is something wrong” that you try to entertain me after the busy hours with sick body? If not, are you trying to test the limit of my patience? I have to say I’m more than disappointed with the translation. Is this what you told me you can send to client directly? Is this what you believe is quality and your professionalism, dedication, and ability? To make you sad, I can not see that. Now I further believe that I’m more than right to have you finish today, not postpone to Monday. What do you expect me to deliver to client with this ridiculous document if I have no time to read next Monday?

Pls refer to attached, and argue where I’m wrong. Ready to take any feedback.

Hi Brian, Heidi and Dongmei,

This is for your reference. You can say I’m too harsh to team member. Fine, if you do not understand why.

谁知道，TA坚决不道歉。

美国人，讲人权。所以，面对这样面目狰狞又毫无尊重可言的leadership，他表示接受。

我不知道这些年过去了，TA有没有意识到TA的问题，有没有变耐心，变温和，变宽容。如果没有，我不是很敢想象TA现在是一个什么样子的境遇。

你的team，光彩奕奕，万众瞩目，当然很fine。可是，他们若有疑惑，有不安，有无法解决的困难，需要你耐心给与指导的时候，你的言语和行为，相当于一脚把他们踢开。而这个TA，写邮件的同时还CC了老板、总监和HR，那真是作恶多端还怕别人不知晓。

Anyway，当时，我又气又觉得好笑。而如今，我关掉文档，也只觉得好笑。

Wish TA well!
