| I Used All Of Your Etiquette Advice!!! | |

| --------------------------------------------------------- | |
| I belong to a Facebook group of professionals where we discuss | |
| lots of different things. A woman is running a children's | |
| program out of a church basement and has purchased various | |
| specialized (and expensive) equipment to use for their | |
| activities. She stores these things in the church during days | |
| that she is not there. The church is now renting the space to a | |
| similar program during the off days and that program's director | |
| emailed the original one asking to use the specialized | |
| equipment. For various reasons, the original director does not | |
| want to loan out her equipment and she came to our group wanting | |
| to develop a list of reasons beyond insurance that she could | |
| cite for the denial. | |
| In steps me (can I call myself the hero?) Without using our | |
| lingo, I basically told her that "no" is a complete sentence and | |
| that she should not JADE at all. I told her that my reply would | |
| be "I am very sorry, but that is not going to be possible." | |
| BAM!!! BMaB for the win! I did good, right? ;D Ok, I will get | |
| over myself. But I just wanted to thank you all, because you | |
| really provided the answer in this case! | |

| She should probably keep an eye on her stuff, though. In all | |
| likelihood, the other program might "borrow" the equipment | |
| anyway. | |

| This. Owner of the equipment needs to find a way to get her | |
| stuff under lock and key. | |

| It's like you were all there! ;D This was suggested multiple | |
| times to the OP and I have to agree that it is a risk. (I do not | |
| recall if she replied as to whether or not it was locked, but | |
| hopefully she is doing this.) | |
