Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

How could that sort of comment be well meaning? It sounds pretty unambiguously rude to me.

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[ill_omened]

They could have intended it in a 'you're better then this move up in the world' sorta way.

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

That's still an incredibly rude thing to say imo.

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

Still, that's implying that there's something wrong with it and if OP enjoys their work I don't see the point in saying something like that other than being an asshole.

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[(Anonymous)]

The fact that you think it might have been meant in a non-rude way means there is pretty much no chance it wouldn't have come off as rude.

I guess as a recent grad, I can see that sort of comment (though hers was terribly executed if this was her intent) as inquiring about a person's future and prospects. That said, I doubt this instance was well meaning.

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

Is this the kind of job that's considered a temporary type of thing like, for example, retail though? Where I'm from administrative jobs are considered 'respectable' long-term/permanent positions rather than a 'only doing this until I can find something better' like retail (not that I personally think there's anything wrong with retail, just that it's something a lot of people look down on).

Re: Weird comment at work...am I overreacting?

[inkdust]

Shrug. I think to some people it might be. Not as ubiquitously as retail, but depending on a person's background, they might not consider it a long-term plan. Speaking very personally, I would be surprised if anyone I knew from high school or college chose an administrative job with the intention of permanence. But that comes from the specific cultures of my schools, and the general idea of a permanent administrative job is perfectly respectable to me. It might not be so to this woman (and seems not to be).
