LoL of the morning

So I am having some problems with my Barn Manager AKA Moron Man.
Last week when the "no visitors" rule came down I sent him an e-mail.
Subject: liability

I need to know how soon you will have the new liability releases done,
one of my students is practicing for a horse show coming up at the end
of this month and we cannot afford to skip many lessons.
She and I will be representing Grand Forks Stables at an Eventing Show
in Fargo.
Thanks
Sarai Kramer

This is what he sent back

We'll get it completed next week and let the membership know. I'll get
it done as soon as I can. As far as lesson continuation, writing and
finalizing the individual service contracts may take a little longer.
But, I want to get them done quickly so we can advertise it if any of
you agree to the terms and wish to offer lessons...thanks..

As you can see he was/is not overly concerned about my students upcoming show, he could care less if she gets to practice or not. He just wants the "feather in his cap" of managing a stables that offers lessons, I don't know if any other base stables have lessons programs but I'm betting not many. Without me there wouldn't be ANY lessons but whatever.*rolls eyes*

Now last evening I received this from him out of the blue, I had no idea what inspired it.
Subject: lessons


You have a student who is showing one of your horses at a show in Fargo (I think you told me Fargo) soon, and I’m concerned about their inability to practice based on our “Off Limits” policy. Please bear with me as I work through this issue. I’m not entirely sure how it’s going to play out yet, but I feel you deserve to be kept up-to-date because of the situation between you and your student. As soon as I can get these issues completed, I will let you and the rest of the membership know. Thank you for your continued patience…

The only thing I can think of is one of my other students was supposed to start lessons for the summer last night, I had to call and let them know we couldn't do lessons for now, and in fact I couldn't even let her come see the horses due to the management decisions of "no visitors", I suggested if they wanted to they could take a complaint to the barn manager.

I sent this email to Hannah's mom and she only replied with one statement

(name) is a Douche

That made my morning right there...
