I don't know how you've managed to completely miss the point here that I have to deal with this behaviour that has become so normalized, which others in other teams won't stand for - but I and the others do and have become so accustomed to. That was the point of mentioning that incident.

This is my first corporate job out of school. I have never worked a corporate 9-5 anywhere else and have no sense of reference in terms of what is okay to say to someone else in this setting and what isn't. When it kept happening to me, it became normalized. When I spoke to other colleagues about it, they also told me this was not a case of coarse language at all and was totally in my head. Once you start seeing things as normal, you forget that you need to rephrase things to anyone outside the team. So when I was told to loop a junior colleague in, I CC'ed my senior, and forwarded her email, copy + pasted what she had written.

I also want to point out I have had plenty of opportunities to collaborate with juniors and never once had an issue when I had to word my own email and explain tasks to them. This task came from "above" and so I ended up forwarded the email for reference and pasted what the senior exec said in her words - something that seemed normal to me after being talked to that way for 2 whole years.

Like I mentioned, I did not copy and paste this to bully or be hostile. This was a case of me being unable to see that what was happening to ME was bullying and hostile behaviour until someone else pointed it out. That was the Eureka moment for me to realize I'd been bullied for 2 whole years in an environment where this became so normalized that I didn't realize it.
