So today I think I upset someone at work today and I genuinely feel awful. I have a good banter with a colleague we have a laugh and take the piss all the time at each others expense. We always so sometimes it can go a touch too far sometimes we can laugh it off.
this colleague by rank could be considered at my level ish I come with a little more experience than that have and ive done their job before. I was chosen to deliver some info about key agenda items to a few teams. We were say in our team when I was asked. He said something to me and I felt it was in an abrupt manner something sarcastic about why I was chosen and another colleague said yeah didnt they fancy choosing insert other colleagues name. So I do say “I have been a leader before this job so being chosen in this context as ive done this before does make sense.” Colleague then said “not a d* measuring competition” and eye rolled at me I then said i feel you tried to undermine my intellect. I really didn’t mean it to come across badly at all but he sort of just closed th office door later and didnt really say much to me after that and normally we head down in the lift after work and they just left.
I genuinely don’t ever want to upset anyone. Have I done wrong because the anxiety is actually eating me up.
