Just don't make the mistake of feeding them - you'll regret it. You can, with patience, eventually get them to eat out of your hand (not the bucks, though, probably). But they will keep coming back and start eating all the stuff you don't want them to.
My wife did that to our front screen door. I fixed it so it is still usable, but it will never be the same.
I'm a gun owner, but not an a$$hole. People like him obviously have McCaffery (anger management) issues.
But seriously - I don't want you to not be true to yourself, but I wouldn't piss this guy off. There's a really fine teaching job waiting for you somewhere, and the kids you teach will be glad they had you.

I've spoken to him all I need to. Since I don't have a habit of entering apartments, this should blow over nicely.
And I see a FT support job at DMACC just opened up. That might be a nice little fit if it's possible.
When mom did a lot with the local food bank she would bring home all the bread that was past date because they couldn't give it away. There was always a lot so we would tear up about a laundry basket full and dump it in the yard. The deer would be there at 4pm daily waiting. If mom or dad brought it out they would just step aside. They were a little more skittish if I brought it out. Even after they no longer did it the deer would still stop by about that time looking for any other scraps we would throw out for them.
Our plane will be landing in the Dominican Republic at almost exactly this time next week.
Another bit of good news. I don't think I'll have to shovel snow for one full day today.

At the ranch, there was a small herd that would come running when Grandpa let the screen door slam in the early evening. He would go out & scatter corn for them. They also learned to not bother showing up when the door slammed throughout the day as us grandkids went running in & out.
We've protected the young fruit trees we planted, and we keep them out of the area right up by the house, which is where my flower garden is. They chomp on the hostas at the bottom end of the garden, but most years, they leave the other stuff alone.
However, I moved my begonias up onto the balcony last summer. Those proved fairly irresistible to the deer when I had them at ground level, despite all of my repellent efforts. So I had amazing blooms from July until late October this year...all variations on cardinal & gold.
That's Milo, to give perspective on the size of some of the blooms.

Kudos to you and Papa Lew on the snow removal job. It looks tremendous.We've protected the young fruit trees we planted, and we keep them out of the area right up by the house, which is where my flower garden is.

I have to admit that the first party we had at our house I was talking to some of our guests while grilling and I walked right into the sliding screen on our sliding deck door. I never did before and haven't since but I had to do it when there was the most people in our house there has ever been.
I'm disappointed in all of you that Cool Hand Luke hasn't been posted after this.
I'm shaking the bush, boss.
My screen on my sliding door is all messed up because I've walked into it on a couple of occasions. No alcohol involved either so I can't blame it on anything but lack of paying attention.
So we're saying Bob Kraft was manipulated?
Today not only included opening a file folder in my computer documents that was completely empty (should have contained spreadsheets that I use daily), but also this gem of a conversation:
Me: "Hi, I was wondering if I could get a copy of an invoice?"
Her: "Sure! What's the invoice number?"
*I give it to her*
Her: "And what's a fax number for you?"
*headdesk*
Me: "It's area code 515...."
(If not more)
People! Email...please!

I only like this commercial because I can recite that line nearly identical to how she says it. I can affect a pretty darn good Valley girl accent.
Dunno what that says about me.
It just evidences your incredible and expansive range--from Eowyn to Valley Girl. Hmmm...what about Eowyn as a Valley Girl?
