I personally don’t mind cuss words. However I do find it rude and appropriate inappropriate when you use such words to other people, especially on your colleagues.
Early this morning, when I arrived in the office I was surprised to see this bond paper with some chicken handwriting on it. Basically it was reprimanding us to don’t forget to turn off the aircon before going home. The concern was noble and fairly correct however the approach is wrong. Telling employees to turn off the F***ING aircon and use the F***KING remote is a gesture of profanity and an apparent lack of management finesse.
Reasoning that this is just you when mad is not an excuse. Don’t expect everyone to follow your terms without any objective basis because in business, business is business. There is a thin line, I guess, between business and personal life and pseudo-business people should start using it.
The effect of a cuss word when directed at employees can be demoralizing at some point. You are no longer correcting the action you are already bawdily berating. Trying to assert that you are this person that way, is embarrassing for your part and, in the long run, you don’t earn the respect of everyone.
