Well...I reached a whole new level with assertiveness abilities today. I basically brow-beat the VISN Chief of HR in a very strongly worded 3 paragraph email, while CCing my supervisor on it. I called him and his whole division out for their incompetence and a source of substantial unnecessary stressors that contribute to the high revolving door rate. This was all brought about after spending the last 4 months escalating via the chain of command an issue pertaining to the fact my VA took $700 of my money and is refusing to give it back to me.
Funny thing is, my supervisor has been copied on every email (all 15-20) of them with every member of our VISN's HR division since last September. My supervisor told me today "I support you and agree with you on all points you made." In fact, at one point I even stated "the very fact that it took you over a month to respond to my email on the matter is a testament to what I am speaking of and what landed us in this situation - poor communication all around, and is something that could have easily been avoided and resolved with a simple email or TEAMS message."
