Jeez!! I was asking a co-worker at our corp office to help me with something. During our conversation, I said, "I know honey".



So you ask for help, then insult her?


JEEZ, what the hells wrong with you?

My neighbor got fired a while back for calling a female coworker broad during a conversation.

"Honey" is the office equivalent of "whore" or "skanky slut mouth."

It is a terrible word that has kept women down for centuries.

Men. So typical.

Men are so much better than women, and it's not even close.

Well to be fair, it's not appropriate in a professional setting.




I use the terms "sweetie", "tiger", "champ", "honey", "love" "punkin" all the time at work....to my pediatric patients when I'm trying to comfort them, encourage them or during painful procedures, etc.




I would never say those endearments to another nurse or doctor though. Not appropriate.

Don't call chicks you work with Honey, Babe, Sweetie, anything like that. In fact the less you talk to those broads the better.

would it be out of line to tell a female business acquaintance that she's "Breathtakingly Beautiful"?

That's pure bullshite propaganda that you've been fed by the bitchmade PC crowd. You know what's really unprofessional in a work environment. Getting all pissy and making a huge stink about the word "honey."

"champ"


Such a great word when trying to be condescending. Or variations like "winner".

We're you smoking a cig indoors while drinking whiskey and follow it up with a smack on the arse?

Do you have on a three piece suit and slicked hair and under pay everyone in the office ?

Is She covered in makeup and hairspray and a tight skirt?

Is she ugly, from the north, a Democrat, an Obama fan, or wearing a pants suit?
