Well. That did not resolve anything. We worked out how to communicate with each other—which is basically exactly as we’re doing now.

I mean, I had a list of facts—“this is what she did”—supported by emails and transcripts, and she had one feeling about an email—“I felt threatened”—which was very clearly not a threat, including to the chair, who’d been cc’d on that email. (And also she was trying to use that feeling as an excuse for her behavior, but the email came after her behavior timewise.) And yet somehow that feeling was equivalent to my facts.

So, **** that.
