Dealing with Professionals

It seems to be a habit that on Monday's and Friday's things don't go as smooth as I would like them to be. This morning for example I had to deal with another consultant who has worked with my client before. I tried dealing with him a couple of times before but it seems he does not like to deal with me directly and prefers to talk to the companies assistant. What would be the reason for this behavior you might ask ? So let me try to explain this attitude out of the experience I have with similar people.

The problem is that I know the technical lingo , and I can comment and suggest based on this technical lingo. The assistant however does not have the relevant knowledge to comment or suggest. She can only listen and accept. Hence it would be easier for a person to bullshit the assistant then bullshit the fellow consultant. The particular person has bullshitted my client for a great number of months before I started and this has finished now. :) I just took out the trash
