[QUOTE="Jacob Miller, post: 47127, member: 5063"] In all fairness, I wouldn't say that's a particularly terrible thing to say. One of my first experiences in law was experience at the criminal bar here in Scotland- the first day, I was sitting in the Advocates' 'Gown room' in the bottom of the High Court in Glasgow- one of the (very experienced and highly-regarded) QC's walked into the room on the phone... suffice to say, there may as well have been a cloud of blue air around his head! Even in commercial firms, I've heard more than the occasional curse slip out. As Jessica says, I think the feedback you were given may have been more of an indication of the GR person's disposition than anything else. It reminds me of a time when I was still in school- I was a singer, and had been roped into singing a couple of pieces in a school show, for which I had to use a wearable microphone. I had slightly messed up the end of the song and, as I walked off stage, forgot I was wearing my microphone. The entire audience of 300 people heard me say "I ballsed that right up, didn't I?" over the sound system! I wanted the floor to just open me up and swallow me whole haha. [/QUOTE]
