What would you do?

[Todd VandenAkker]

Again, the point is not to meekly accept the call by one's partner overstepping his bounds, nor to "go along to get along." The point is that there are different ways to go about resolving or dealing with the situation, and choosing a confrontational approach destined to foster animosity is less desireable and less effective overall than using our "people skills" to handle things. Our desired end result is the same (get the guy to stop calling well out of his area), but our means to getting there is quite different. I appreciate those of you who spoke up in favor of people skills.
