Is this offensive or AIBU

[Smurf123456]

So for work we had this get to know you teams online quiz and one colleague (male) used a jokey username for himself "Buster Hyman". Its made me feel all (not envy) and defo have zero respect for him now as I think it shows poor judgement laddish behaviour. But am I'm being massively uptight?

I would have made a formal complaint about that, it’s harassment and sexist not to mention totally inappropriate in the workplace.

No, he’s grim.

No, you're not being uptight. I would make a fuss about it.

He is both disgusting and immature.
I would complain.

Offensive sexist plonker.

Ick

I'd be a bit in public, but at work?? Totally inappropriate

What a guy!

Gross. Nothing wrong with you, lots wrong with him.

That certainly tells you all you need to know about him, objective acheived in two words.

I would let his manager or my own manager aware that this happened in case there is a pattern. Personally, I wouldn't make a formal complaint unless there had been other concerning behaviour. However, it's important to note these things in case he's being inappropriate to someone and you're not aware of it. That person might need others to back up their version of events.

Sexist prick

Report him

He’s an idiot. I’d wait and see if comments like this were made again, hopefully someone told him to stfu

That is VILE

I would complain

Gross, and definitely not appropriate at work.

Why should you be subjected to that kind of bullshit at work?

I'd definitely complain. Management clearly think it's acceptable (assuming they were on the call), which is disappointing in itself, so they need to understand that it's not.

That’s disgusting.

That's vile, and I'm the least uptight person. It's just horrible.

Oh that not good.

Having had to complete four lots of EDI training in the last week (in not being punished for abhorrent behaviour, I just have lots of little jobs) I would put in a complaint.

Wow Buster - the 80's is calling you back buddy! Knob.

Totally unacceptable. Little you could do about it if you met such a user name in a public forum, but you should be better protected from that kind of stuff at work. File a complaint with HR if you are brave enough. (Sadly it will probably take bravery, and if, as it sounds like, you may be new (“getting to know you” exercise) it may be tough.

Even if you decide not to complain, please do not doubt that your disgust and contempt is entirely reasonable, and whenever you are in a more secure position, don’t forget to stick up, and complain, when newer, younger colleagues meet with this sort of misogyny.

I've used silly display names for when I'm talking to my friends, and sometimes I forget to remove them for work meetings. Did that happen to him? Or did he do it on purpose?

It's pretty unprofessional.

Thank you all for the replies. We are all new to the company. I sorta jokingly called it out at the time. I think he's young enough early twenties probably thinks he is f*ckin hilarious.

What a moron he sounds. He's either quite young and full of himself, or he's a perv. I wouldn't be happy with it.
