What would you do to handle a situation...

where it felt that someone was trying to use you without consulting with you first? Also, how would you politely tell this person to "piss off mind and their own business." How would you tell a coworker that you're not interested in being friends and going for lunch....etc etc....politcal correct responses short of "fuck off"

Hello Jim-Bob,

I see two questions. First, how to handle a situation where someone is using you without consulting you first. And second, how to handle a situation where someone is dealing with you directly as they're trying to use you.

I had the first one. I handled it by ripping into the person trying to use me without even talking to me, and then I contacted the person being baited with my name. And I apologized to them and assured them I had no part in the effort to use them too. It got tense with the person trying to use my name without even talking to me (Mrs. KissArmy).

On the second one, I'd be polite and give a reasonable answer why No, I don't do whatever they're inviting me to. Remember, you have to work with this person.

Good luck, hope that helps.
