[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't know why you didn't just wait until he was finished.  Reaching across someone is rude to begin with.  Maybe just focus on manners:  read up on them, practice them.  Manners can help smooth a lot of things over, even if, underneath it all, you are shy or socially inept.  If you reach a point where you've got the manners thing down pat, maybe then you can start working on the shyness (or whatever it is).  Just my 2 cents....[/quote]
Not reading carefully and then responding rudely based on a misperception is also on my list of bad manners. She didn't reach across him. Op did you actually spill the coffee? You have to force yourself to stick around. Most likely what you blurt out will be ok if you can just get yourself to stay. And ignore pp. What a prick.

Btw I did spill someone's coffee in our galley at work recently. He left it on the edge of the counter and was getting a fresh cup. I was getting something out of the fridge and turned to put it on the counter and whoops off the edge it went. I apologized profusely and the dick just sighed loudly. That was weird. But the point is, you can't win. Give yourself a break. [/quote]
