Sorry for this tirade on your LJ ... but you're so right!
No apologies necessary <g>.
There were many things she could have said. Like, "We'd love to but the beancounters won't let us unless we want to sacrifice something else" (which has the advantage, in general, of being true). Or "Thanks, we'll do our best." Or, "Do we do that?" (Which has the advantage of being amusing).
I'm not quite sure why the response, which is why I think it was a momentary fit of insanity.
