yeah of course, metallica wasn't really metallica since the late 90's
grew up on their 80's albums and saw them a few times in europe.. too bad they changed

thanx man i'll have fun.. their new album isn't actually bad at all and hopefully they'll play some old stuff

hehe maybe lars will catch on fire this time

peace i'm out

WWYD?
I'd go direct to the boss and speak with him. I woudn't bother with the peer, as he's already proven to be a douchhat.

Hypothetically.

If it's something critical, that will help the guy not have to work the holidays, or somehow save/make the company money, I'd call him. The goodwill you'll create with the guy could pay off later. If it can really wait, and you're not obligated to be available 24/7, ignore till Monday at 9:45.

so hypothetically, i e-mailed him back and cc'd my manager (and now his since he "went there") and politely explained to the gentleman that my schedule conflicted with the new trip date, and since it was moved the original person from quality whom i was sitting in for would be able to go again.

i also pointed out to him that it was not a critical issue, and that him bombarding me with voice mails, e-mails, and escalating this to my manager before i even had a change to reply (on the weekend!) was not conducive to a "team environment" and that I did not appreciate it.
