Dee Man Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 5 hours ago, ICTChris said: Calling people "mate". In my work people call each other "mate" all the time and it's kind of passive aggressive and annoying. You get two sided conversations where they call each other "mate" every time and it's obvious that they are both raging. Mate mate mate mate mate. Earlier on today I watched old footage of police interviewing Martyn Bryant, the guy who carried out the mass shooting in Tasmania in 1996, and they were constantly referring to him as "mate". Quite a strange choice of person to befriend I thought, although in his defence he does strike you as a really nice guy, always laughing and joking - even his lawyer said he hated himself for not being able to dislike him. I believe he may have had a few issues underneath the smiley exterior though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Mate, why haven't you let people know about that?" "Well, mate, there's not been any updates on that since the last update so I thought I'd wait until later to send something out" "To be honest, mate, we need more regular updates mate" "Mate, I've got a call at 3, mate, and I'll send, mate, an email after, mate, then. Mate" Both clearly raging at each other and yet try to deflect this by saying "mate". Personally I use the term "comrade" or "brother" when addressing my colleagues. ^^^ doesn't share his crisps type post , mate Even worse, he hates crisps, mate. Anyway, an employee in a large supermarket not far from my house called me “mate” last week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 A work colleague of mine used to call me "mate" when the boss was around. When the boss wasn't around the term used was "cnut". But I gave as good as I got. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always tell it to f**k off. I recently phoned a local shop to check what time they closed. I'd missed them for the day so it rolled over to an answering machine which wasn't a problem except...the recording was the voice of a little kid telling me to call back in the moooooorning. Nah, you're alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
