But we aren't going to deal with this attitude and the poor behaviors of missing calls and meetings, being late and lying about it, and all this stuff that's clear BS. It makes us feel like we won't get any results even if we let them try for the next few months, you know?

I am perfectly fine working with a jacka$$ if they are good at what they do and deliver. But the quality of materials we have gotten and the excuses...if you're gonna have a chip on your shoulder at least back it up with being good at what you do. And I've known plenty of people who were just awful in terms of attitude but they backed it up with results, so in terms of a professional relationship, I let it pass. And I also just learned how to work with them.

I need to stop giving it space in my head. This is very much beyond my understanding, but I don't have to understand it.

But thanks for letting me vent. I still have a little ways to go before it's totally complete with them, so I may be back for some more venting.
