I had to throw down with a co-worker today for more or less telling me how to do my job. When I refused to apologize, he went to management with it, where he was laughed out of the office and told to suck it up and stay out of my office.
If I step on your foot, I will apologize. If I spill your drink, I will apologize. But if I'm telling you like it is, and you need to be told like it is? Then no. I wasn't even necessarily bitchy, I didn't even drop the F-bomb. I was just a little loud on what he could do with his thinly veiled advice.
But here's the thing. Now he's all sulky and pouty, like a kid who got scolded and refuses to speak to me, even about work. All throwing shit and slamming his door and stomping down the hall. Ohhhh boooooo-hoooooo, the mean scary lady across the hall yelled at me....wwwaaahhhh.....It's all I can do not to crack up.
