Gentleman, NOT!
Last night, a jerk I hardly know said to me on the phone, "Fuck off, you bitch!" after I tried to get him to do something. Before that, I was still quite cordial and civil, even if my attitude might have come across as pushy. But NOTHING I said warrant that from him.
Initially, I was stunned into silence. But when he continued shouting along the lines of "Can't you get the message, you fucking bitch!", I couldn't take it anymore. The smart move might have been to back off and just hang up but the anger just shot into my head at that moment . We started a shouting match, with me saying something like "Why the hell are you swearing at me, you fucking bastard!". Kind of childish and funny when I think back on it. 2 grown adults fighting like this.
I'm shocked by the person's behaviour, at how ungentlemanly and rude he is. And then after that, he had the cheek to complain that I'm rude, without a word on his swearing.
The apology came through this morning via a third party.
