I am not your sweetie, I never was your sweetie and I never will be your sweetie. Sure I can print that information out to you, I could even send it express post so it gets to your office with the first mail tomorrow BUT I’M NOT GOING TO! Why? Because you are nobody, you are less than nothing, you are not one of our customers, you keep trying to scam help without paying for it BUT IT’S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN. No matter how many times you call me sweetie it wont change my mind. In fact the more times you call me sweetie the less respect I have for you - WARNING - You are now in the negative respect zone! Go call someone else sweetie you arrogant, patronizing, freeloading git! and use a breath mint too you foul mouthed bastard ---

Babe I can cope with. Babe is a compliment. Being called sweetie by a slimy, smelly sleaze is insulting. ---

Let me guess, the OP was directed at “the guy in the other office who can’t do his own washing up”. ---

Downstairs guy has thankfully employed temp girl on a full time basis - she now does all his washing up. Poor lass. Twas not him who called me sweetie it was an evil demon spawned in the outer reaches of hell who sells ink jet cartridge refill packs. Apparently he wants a demonstration stand (for half price) at our Caravan Show. What bit of the word “CARAVAN” did he miss?? Almost as bad as the super dooper top secret only just released in Australia prawn peeler someone else tried to book in. ---

Prawn Peeler??? BWAHAHAHAHA Can’t wait to see the demo of that on Bert Newton… You should have asked the guy if he sells yabbie pumps too. ---

I agree, **Leechie.** Sweetie is not good. Honey and darling also make my shitlist. DO NOT use terms of endearment to me, if you are a stranger or a work colleague. It is not funny, nice, appropriate or conducive to getting whatever it is that you want. [aside] **Reprise,** you can call me snookums any time you like, as long as we’re gettin nekkid 😉 [/aside] ---

What can I tell ya toots, the world is rough. Seriously, this guy wants to sell ink jet cardridges at a caravan show? I’d say women slapping him upside the head either isn’t his biggest problem, or it was, and it affected his brain. Oh, and I read that as “sugar-bitches”. I’m not sure what that says about me. ---
