Maddeningly Tedious E-mail Correspondence

Start at the bottom at BEGINNING and read upwards to END. I am yours truly. Secretary is the person attempting to set an appointment for the interview for CPE residency.

Would someone please take a look at the response from yours truly and tell me how this could be misunderstood?
Let's begin with the week of March 9 - 13. I will hold this week open to your convenience of scheduling. If nothing works for that week, I can keep going through the next week, also, March 16-20. I am eager to complete the step of interviewing. Scheduling this interview will be my #1 priority, and I will work around it.
I'm not sure, but I think I'm being punished. This interview will not be for another MONTH!

END
March 20, 2:00 p.m.
Thank you,
yours truly

Secretary, March 2 will not work. As I said below:
March 9 - 13. I will hold this week open to your convenience of scheduling. If nothing works for that week, I can keep going through the next week, also, March 16-20.
Perhaps you meant March 20?

Due to some events that are taking place this week I will have to schedule you sometime in March. Could you give me some dates and times in March?

Thank you,
