1st.... Cowboys vs Aliens!!! You know that some actually good films have been made right????? (Although since Im one if the few people that likes Battleship I can hardly judge)
Back to the point in hand...
You know the phrase 'keeping the road home paved and smooth', when I read your updates I sometimes get the image that you have a pristine road the only issue is you've put a police road block at the entrance with a big sign warning of danger - of the umbrella corp variety.
In many of the situations here it seems that the WAS/WS blames the LBS for their unhappiness. For your EXW she seems more resigned than that.
I understand DB'g but a lot of the counter intuitive ness is because of a misunderstanding of the place the other person is in. The vets are great at explaining it and helping others to understand but we have to remember (and they say regularly) its not one size fits all and you have to do what works.
Sometimes diplomacy calls for an olive branch.
Before I spout any more metaphor I'm going to stop, but it might be worth discussing with L/C whether it's worth experimenting with a slightly different tak.
