so, yesterday i was making a phone call to united healthcare because they processed someones copay wrong and i wanted them to reprocess the claim. united's customer service is in india so keep that in mind. anyway, i get this guy and usually i write down the rep's name but i didn't catch it and figured i'd get it at the end of the call. our conversation goes like this:

guy: how's the weather?
me: rainy.
guy: oh that's cool. do you like the rain?
me: no, it's been raining for like 2 weeks now.
guy: oh, cool.

a little bit of awkward silence.

guy: what do you do on weekends?
me: i'm sorry, what was that?
guy: what do you do on weekends?
me (semi-flustered): uhhh, are you still pulling up the claim?
guy: yes, is it okay if i talk to you though while i'm pulling it up?
me: no, i just want to have this claim reprocessed.
guy (all sultry-like): okay baby.

SERIOUSLY?! you're working at united not 1800phonesex! gah! i hung up on him because i was so flustered and totally didn't expect that. i may be over reacting but work is work. i ended up calling back and speaking with a supervisor. i'm pretty nieve so i didn't expect him to act like that haha

I think you reacted the right way. Even people I know are not allowed to call me baby...

Absolutely inappropriate. Especially in that tone of voice.

Man! Maybe his brother works for JP Morgan Chase becuase when we were Washington Mutual Bank I had some guy from India asking me inappropriate questions....like where I lived...who I lived with....WHAT I HAD FOR BREAKFAST...(uhhh weird...) unfortunately he was a tech guy so this was over IM while he was remotely on my computer! It was CREEPY. My manager turned him in.

I work in an industry with all men and have never had anyone call me Baby (but that might be because I'm their boss now that I think about it....). I think you did the right thing!

thanks for making me feel better about this, everyone! :)
