re: Just got my arse chewed for saying "honey" to a co-worker

I wouldn't say it in an office. It can be taken as condescending, like calling somebody "sweetie" or "son"

This, although the older guys in my office refer to me as kid sometimes. Even recently and I'm in my 30s.

To the OP, she shouldn't have blown up but calling any woman that you don't know "honey" has been a bad idea since 1959.
