I emailed someone once at work by accident talking about what a bitch she was. Luckily it was just a vendor.

The weird thing was that everytime I traveled to Cleveland afterwards she invited me to go have drinks with her.

It's because you established dominance. Just like OP's coworker did to him. Classic power move.

I understand why you would be bummed, but your request doesn't sound unreasonable. Ain't no reason to reflect that negativity on yourself.

No response would have been best.

Would have driven the guy crazy wondering if you’re mad or not.

Trust yourself and give less fricks about meaningless shite. Sounds like you’re detail oriented. That will serve you well.

This is the winner right here. It's funny and defuses the situation.

I almost fricked up like this but way worse. I was pretty low on the chain, but worked for a global company and wasn’t a big fan of my manager. We had a meeting at night with our overseas people and before we started the meeting I was on IM with another work friend. Well I was actually hosting the meeting so I was running the PowerPoint on my screen so everyone who joined the online meeting could see as my manager went through each slide. At one point , my manager said something really dumb and I started to open the IM to my work friend and basically trash my manager. Fortunately I remembered that everyone in the meeting could see my screen so I closed the IM. I probably would have been fired, thank god I didn’t follow through.

Just know he’s a spineless dick that doesn’t like you and will sell you out. Revenge is a dish best served cold. Give it time then take him out at the knees

Eh, he had explained something weeks ago that if I remembered, I would have been able to figure it out. It's just been so long since I had seen that it was out of sight out of mind.

Still no reason to take his negativity on yourself, in my view.

Text him a pic of his wife blowing you and tell him you meant to send it to someone else.
