Political correctness is the downfall of society. There are far too many people looking to be offended. :whip: |
Indeed.

Maybe it's just me but I'd feel like a twat going up to someone at work and saying, 'I'm offended by your swearing'. :rolleyes: |
Exactly. I can understand people being offended if you swore AT them, but I hate these prudish types who become offended by the slightest little thing they hear, even if it's not directed at them.

I swear ALOT. but in my line of work, if i dont throw a couple F bombs in a phrase, people dont pick up the sense of urgency.
ie: Sir, i have done some calculations and it appears to me that your bridge deck elevations did not factor into account the width of bearing seats.
The contractor would then proceed to do things according to his origional plan and the bridge would be sitting 10 cm too high.
now here is what i would say to a contractor.
"What the ? pull your head out of your ass, you have bearing seats to fit in there you tard! that in deck is going to be 100 ml out of spec and im going to hammer your ass with deviations then make you diamond grind that sucker at your dime! get it in fixed!!"
the contractor would then proceed to drop everything and fix the problem as he sensed that im lividly pissed off with him and im prepared to rectally violate him with extra fees and work. |
That about sums up my work, but we swear in the office too. I had two co-workers who were best friends but used to delight in swearing at each other all day.
They used to take the same freeway to work and would constantly give each other the bird in traffic. One day one guy sent the other a text saying "I hope you crash reading this, you cunt".
Most common in our office is abusing clients and retarded people AFTER you hang up the phone. Generally we do not swear at one another. |

Usually I'm cursing at my computer because the main application we deal with 95% of the time takes extremely long to finalize and upload to the online server. I'm in a corner and I say it under my breath so it's nothing too major.
Other than that I occasionally swear during lunch when eating with coworkers. |
