I need some help in writing a response to some unethical backstabbing lying manager types.
Basically I'm going to get an apology from 3 supervisors and several of their minions and offered the transfer to the unit back. Basically I would like an eloquent response to refusing the offer. They couldn't gather enough material to have a set of balls to share between the 3 of them. One is a lying manipulating little pos, one is nicknamed 'Gutshot' due to his backstabbing ways, one is out for his next payraise or next project and could care less about the people under him. I was thinking of something along the lines of: I respectfully decline the transfer to your unit and care not to work for or with unethical and immoral managers of your caliber. Some prime words I'm looking to substitute that come to mind are chickenshit, nutless wonders, take your job and shove it up your asses sideways, and some CoC violations I've yet to come up with. You get the idea; there was one guy we worked with years ago; you would go into his office and talk; you walked out feeling good, then got to thinking and realized that you just got your ass chewed out. 
Thanks |

Trust me, just say, "Thanks, but I respectfully decline the offer."
Do not drop to their level, do not give anyone a reason to call you an asshole, and do not think of ways to get back at people that supervise you. Suggest you beef up your resume and look to move on. |

Parts of what follows below were actually painful to write. However, because of the ongoing misinformation campaigns launched by Unethical Management Types and its attendants I feel it is my duty to write this. So, without further ado, I present you with this all-important piece of information: Many of the antihumanist showboaters I've encountered are convinced that it's illegal to maximize our individual potential for effectiveness and success in combatting Unethical Management Types—or, if it isn't illegal, then it ought to be. This view is bleeding-heart by any stretch of the imagination and reflects how Unethical Management Types's sermons are merely a stalking horse. They mask its secret intention to create some logorrheic, pseudo-psychological profile of me to discredit my opinions.
While Unethical Management Types is out muddying the word "thyroparathyroidectomize", the general public is shouldering the bill. Sadly, this is a bill of shattered minds, broken hearts and homes, depression and all its attendant miseries, and a despondency about Unethical Management Types's attempts to seize control over where we eat, sleep, socialize, and associate with others. Unethical Management Types has no innate compass for judging what is proper behavior and what is unacceptable. That may sound unbelievable, but it's the truth. Another unbelievable but true statement is that Unethical Management Types is proposing a cure for which there is no disease or, more likely, a disease for which there is no cure. In other words—and let's say this plainly, clearly, and soberly so that no one can misinterpret Unethical Management Types's true intentions—Unethical Management Types appears committed to the proposition that its views are correct, self-evident, and based on fact and reason, while other organizations' positions are not just wrong but illegitimate, ideological, and unworthy of serious consideration. If you were to get a second opinion from someone who's not a member of Unethical Management Types's little empire, however, he'd of course tell you that knowledge is the key that unlocks the shackles of bondage. That's why it's important for you to know that the purpose of this letter is far greater than to prove to you how irascible and conceited Unethical Management Types has become. The purpose of this letter is to get you to start thinking for yourself, to start thinking about how I call upon it to stop its oppression, lies, immorality, and debauchery. I call upon it to be an organization of manners, principles, honour, and purity. And finally, I call upon it to forgo its desire to make nearby communities victims of environmental degradation and toxic waste dumping. Unethical Management Types likes saying that it knows 100% of everything 100% of the time. Okay, that's a parody—but not a very gross one. In point of fact, it is hardly surprising that Unethical Management Types wants to subvert existing lines of power and information. After all, this is the same backwards, unregenerate sleazeball whose malodorous prattle informed us that cannibalism, wife-swapping, and the murder of infants and the elderly are acceptable behavior. Unethical Management Types keeps saying that cell-phone towers are in fact covert mind-control devices that use scalar waves to beam images into people's brains while they sleep. In such statements, as in most of its propaganda, there are major omissions and layers of codswallop wrapped around a small piece of the truth. The real story is that I could go on for pages listing innumerable examples of Unethical Management Types's unsympathetic homilies and ill-bred offhand remarks. I have already written enough, surely, to convince you that Unethical Management Types appears to have found a new tool to use to help it represent Heaven as Hell and, conversely, the most wretched life as paradise. That tool is ageism, and if you watch it wield it you'll doubtlessly see why the point is that if everyone spent just five minutes a day thinking about ways to analyze its roorbacks in the manner of sociological studies of mass communication and persuasion, we'd all be a lot better off. Is five minutes a day too much to ask for the promise of a better tomorrow? I sure hope not, but then again, when I say that nothing is more certainly written in the book of fate than that Unethical Management Types will usher in the beginning of a pesky new era of tribalism, this does not, I repeat, does not mean that it's merely trying to make this world a better place in which to live. This is a common fallacy held by repressive, licentious mooncalves. In the beginning of this letter, I promised you details, but now I'm running out of space. So here's one detail to end with: Unethical Management Types isn't as smart as it thinks it is. In summary, I decline your offer to work with your unit. Go fuck yourself. |

Are you expecting the unethical managers are going to suddenly become enlightened by your stunning literary riposte? That if they did not care about you or your opinion previously this will suddenly cause them to do so?
If that is the case, prepare for disappointment and more cold water in your face. We call corporate America a "jungle" for very good reason my friend. I'd skip the amateur theatrics and concentrate on things of more pragmatic benefit to your career. |

This, but drop the "Thank You" part. I like a simple: "With respect to your offer dated XX/YY/ZZ, I have chosen to remain in my current position. R2.0" No salutation, no closing - just reference and decline. |

With or without the Thank You is the way to go. Other posters have stated the importance of keeping it on point and professional. You will gain nothing by pointing out what you consider as issues with the department or its leadership. |

Ask for their offer in writing then wipe your ass with it in front of them. Maybe piss on it afterwards. Be sure to yell, "This is what I think of your offer!" I don't think acting like a 7th grader is going to help him very much in the situation he is describing, or any other situation for that matter. I do love your screen name though!

Thanks and I see your points.
Basically these guys got caught up in a lie they generated about me; isolated me from their regime thinking that I would just go on about my business; retaliated by withdrawing the approval to transfer to their unit/regime to further isolate me from them. Dumbasses tried to involve me in an HR issue which I had absolutely no involvement with (I've never been to HR or in an HR issue in 20+ years and have a solid reputation). I was content to be left alone, until I learned they started an untrue rumor and was letting it run. I was taking a semi-annual Harassment review and test; accidentally read about retaliation on the issue they generated; made a call to HR to see what the story was on the issue. Even if I had done what they tried to accuse me of, it was a legal and valid act and protected from retaliation. Lying is a posted offense, but I know that they being management, it won't apply to them. I'm pretty much golden, they'll want to leave me alone after this. And I'm good with it also. |
