Considering that they feel entitled to his time i think it's fair. They also try to threaten him into submission to their rules. Some people are so accustomed to powertrip that they are genuinely surprised when they can't do It.
This is great for Internet high fives, but it is an overly hostile/argumentative attitude right out of the gate. Obviously I don't have any context or backstory, so maybe he already tried the more appropriate way and he was just over it. But if this was the first interaction like this it's a pretty wild response.
But there is an art to telling people to fuck off that's still "no(fuck you)" and less "sucks for you"disrespectful but professional.
"I don't attend the morning stand-ups because they are for employees and not contractors (like me). "
"You need to attend!"
"Of course! I'm happy to renegotiate my contract to include the employee morning meetings when it expires on the 18th next month. Until then, I have other obligations and I won't be attending those stand-ups. Just a heads up, my current rate reflects my current obligations. If you want me to attend a morning meeting on a regular basis, my rate with go up. Let me know if you want me to send over an updated rate. I should be able to turn it around before the 18th of next month."
