[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It's rude whichever way you interpret it, OP. I would start asking: "which part did you not understand?" [/quote] This. It's a rude phrase that only a queen bee would use, and the only way to counter is with an equally abrupt phrase. You can say it sweetly or condescendingly, but it needs to come from the same playbook[/quote] +1. As an alternative, OP, you could say "Sure, let me answer again, now sloooooowly"[/quote] Better: "Bless your heart. Let me answer again, sloooooowly"[/quote] A great way to get shown the door. Quickly.[/quote] I get the impression that both OP and her boss work in pretty useless local government stuff. Not likely to get you fired, no matter what you say or do[/quote]
