whats the worst thing you have been called on the job

[soulcougher73]

Worst thing was when someone said "You did a really good job". Im not used to hearing "good". Usually its "outstanding", "best ever" etc.....

I usually get accolades. But I have had more than one (lazy) person tell me I was making them look bad.
I got in a fist fight at work once but I don't recall the exact words the guy said to me.

I was called "smarter than the average bear."

Been called everything in the book but I don't give a shit because I'm the Boss.

I've never been called a name at work, but my last boss did call me useless at one point.

3 months after that she was fired, and I had nothing to do with it since I didn't complain about her to anyone but my friends at the bar (lol).

Now, almost 2 years later, this "useless" employee is still here doing his job, and she's long gone.

The worst thing to be called is "in" imo

If the army counts as a job, there was that day I woke up to the chant of "GI Motherfracker." Looked outside to see that some "local nationals" had broken into our compound and were doing a snake dance around the flag pole.

Would of rather kept on sleeping but then they proceeded to break out the barrack windows. Didn't bother me that much (I was on the second floor). But it did seem rather random.

Then, two or three weeks later, they burned a few dozen cars four blocks from my apartment. (We were assigned to the barracks, but apartments were so cheap that most dog handlers also kept an apartment in Koza.) Youtube video with music.

Slept though that one. Though, when we got up the next day it was a bit strange to turn onto Moromi Street and see cars turned upside down and burnt lining both sides of the street.

Name calling never bothered me much. But when we had to work crowd control with our dogs, the rock throwing always seemed suboptimal.

I've been called a great many things in basic training, never really bothered me unless I was called a "dræn" (means a drain, unless you've been in the danish army you wont get it), that is the biggest insult imaginable and could quite possibly warrant a violent response.
