Re: Coworker who won't take no for an answer

This is not about the hobby shop. Don't go there, literally or figuratively.


This is about a coworker who will not drop a personal request. The content
of the request is irrelevant, and should not be engaged.

The previous suggestions in this thread are much more on-target to the real
issue.
