Only if he is steely enough to take the shot.
-
sometimes
-
I really try not to act that way. I look at the big picture or the message's source most of the time.
-
Not at all, but I may "return to sender".
-
Whenever this case happens I don't. I just hear from the messenger and not ask any questions. What I do is to find out who is the real person that is responsible for the action caused instead. The messenger should be innocent of the case.
-
No, I go for the source of the info. (If that's what you meant). Messengers could be adding or subtracting info for their own good.
-
No, after watching 300 I would rather kick them into a giant hole. BWHAHAHA!
-
Usually only if they don't SAY they're the messenger first. I might say something in retort and then realize that that isn't the person I should be telling. Then I'll stop and say "thanks" or something, and then start yapping at the person who sent the message. Did that even make sense?
-
Too many people act this way with negative feedback without even answering the questions. I will pose any question and have lost a number of points for doing so.
-
Why would anyone shoot a messenger? I wouldn't shoot anybody no matter what the message and certainly not a person charged to deliver a message to me. Of what use is it? What does it accomplish?
