the power struggle

so i am dealing with a couple of people who represent the company that is our client on this particular project. however, i mainly go through one main contact to give out info and receive info.

so one of the guys in this group (not the main contact) calls me and asks for info that i've already given to my main contact. i tell him that so and so already has all the information that he is looking for. go through him to get what you need.

then this guy goes off and tells me that he's out of the loop, the main contact shouldn't be making decisions that he is making, what about this and what about that, blah blah blah.

i tell him, meet with your guy (our main contact) and find out what info we have given him.....translation.....i ain't tell'n you nuthin because you ain't the one in charge in yo end, the "main contact" is, so quit fishing for info that you have no right to know and quit trying to be one up above the "main contact" because it ain't gonna happen, and stop trying to play designer and calling me up everytime you feel like moving a wall or a fricken door. if yo company wants you in the loop, then you'd be in the loop.

so i called this guy the other day and left him a message to make sure he squared things away with the main contact. i haven't heard from him since.
