Am I the d***head?
I’m a kitchen designer, our company has a strong connection with a stone manufacturer. I talk to the drawing office team all the time, I’m also very positive, friendly and don’t take things too seriously. I always get a laugh out of them. Today I had to talk to a guy called Chris from another department.
We were making decisions about a job installation but it ended up that it really lay with my director and his manager to make the final call. I joked that we were just the middlemen and i will need to speak to my “Daddy” to get the final call, Chris then said, il have to get my “mummy” then etc etc. out of context it sounds weird I get it.
Half an hour later his manager phoned to say that id been rude and that her staff don’t appreciate being talked to like that.
The guy was joking and laughing with me then had done that.
Why are people such dickheads, life isn’t this serious. It really annoyed me. I understand there is a time to joke about and a time to be serious but I was only making light of the situation?!
