Very polite ways of telling a person in a managers position to fuck off

[Treacle Toes]

She's distant

I've got to email her about something else now (something i emailed her about 2 months ago, and a number of times since and have never had a response)

She never replies to emails or answers the phone hence i went straight to her staff

This could be your 'tack' then.

I persoanlly would make it clear this is why I went to her staff. She can't argue if she doesn't respond to your emails etc.

Good plan.....

no-one here ever replies to email, its the only place ive ever worked where a 5 minute job ends up taking 3 months.

anyway, fingers crossed for the interview on thursday...... although i am planning on asking for possible ammendments to the contract which might put them off

Meet with her face to face, smile and nod lots when she rants at you, then absent-mindedly wander off out the room when she's mid-flow.

Nice use of my typo!

Sounds like you went beneath her rather than over her head, if I read the Op correctly. If anyone has been out of order imho its her for copying your superior into her email. Is she on same level, below or above you.
