Speaking of Reputation

"Emily's heart is as black as her pants."

A colleague said this on his way out of the building, just loud enough so I could hear it as I walked out of my classroom (so loud, because that's a really long way down the hallway).

Now I've done nothing to this guy. He is on the periphery of my work friends . . . a friend of a friend. He is rude to waitstaff, which bothers me tremendously. Maybe it's that I call him on it.

So, yeah, trying to not take that personally.

Wow. He simultaneously nailed passive-aggressive *and* cowardly.


Yeah, he might feel 'embarrassed' that you called him out.
