I got in trouble at work for telling a mate to "stick your point twenty five up your ass" in a friendly tone. Some woman was waiting around to clock out and she was deeply offended.
she's ugly too. |

| Not really but most of us do it. The only time we tone is down is in front of management or visitors. |

| At my last job, a lot of filth would come out of both mine and my boss's mouth. Especially when the hot secretary would pass by our office. |

Ugly people usually have personality defects due to being rejected and having to try harder to gain people's trust and affection. Often they are very bitter or neurotic.
I say this as an ugly person. |

| i think the question here is less on if you are allowed or not and more about what kind of professional image you want to portray. |

| Ill curse infront of some of my clients and the other trainers clients that I know. Im independent so im my own boss and never have to worry about getting written up or fired. But some times its bad for business and referrals. |

Political correctness is the downfall of society. There are far too many people looking to be offended. :whip:
If I were in your shoes I'd do anything subtle to offend her, including blatant abuse of blue language in and around her office/desk.
Unless she's your boss (doesn't sounds like it though) |

| Getting offended at cursing is not "political correctness." |

| Never in front of my clients nor in front of head honchos but in and around my our offices it happens. Nothing too explicit aside from a lot of "ah "s and "" here and there but never TO someone. |
