    I think you handled that situation very well.

    He was wrong in how he spoke to you. I work for a DCA and would be facing disciplinary if I spoke to people like that.

    You are worth more than than man will ever be.

    What an offensive remark. Imagine if it was put the other way round, the outrage it would cause (you are worth more than any woman will ever be).
    I used to think that good grammar is important, but now I know that good wine is importanter.

    Not nice being at the mercy of a bully is it? Don't think about it, just ignore them and get on with something else.

    It was obviously a typo and was meant to read - more than THAT man will ever be.

    Thats not what charlotte said, meant She said worth more than THAT man, not any man.

    She wasn't claiming that all women are worth more than men, just that I am worth more than THAT particular man. (which ty for btw charlotte :kiss:)

    edit LOL and now I realise that I got it wrong to and read the typo as it was ment to be and not how it actually was :o

    I believe one of the "than"s should have been a "that".

    You did well. You couldn't have handled it better. Do a Uma Thurman/Kill Bill kind of thing is difficult when it's a phone call...

    Well done.
