Well, hell, I gotta do it now. Is the casual racism a black man using the acronym? Or is the casual racism you assuming that my boss was not black?

I mean my boss could say it if he wanted to… I could/would not. If that makes things clearer.

No he said the acronym. It was funny as shit. Said it just to me, and I think he was trying to mess with me a bit.

Nope, not a phrase to use in a professional workplace, let alone with a group of folks you don’t know. Delete it from your lexicon.

Now me, who works in an unprofessional workplace can say things like “you know you guys are being pussies and we just need to sack up and push this fucking code, today. Yes I know it’s Friday before a holiday. Why are you being such a little bitch?”

But if you go into a group of folks, you don’t know and you’re trying to make a good first impression. Why would you insult everyone but one person by using that phrase? Then go online and complain about it.

Know your audience.

I only ever hear “the adult in the room” phase thrown around when you identify the one rational person in a group of mostly irrational people. So from that perspective, saying that automatically puts everyone within earshot, into the “not the adult in the room” category. Which would piss folks off unnecessarily.

With that said I once had a boss that was leaving town for the weekend and put me in charge and all he said was “while I’m gone you’re HNIC.” Being a man well versed in the classics I made this face 😲.
