Lol handkerchief? It's harmless. There's much harsher vocabulary.

that's true, but in a sheltered workshop for the disabled, I don't think it's okay. That's why you're there.


i can imagine that it's very hard on the construction site, no one gives a smile, and they throw swear words around each other's ears

Teasing and teasing each other doesn't always have to be negative. This can also promote social bonding. You probably just have to be a little more forceful and say something appropriate back. Then both laugh about it at the end.

ok can I also say idiot? is almost the same as goofball. But this is not my level or way. I reject such a thing.

What happened there that your colleague called you a goofball ?

So if he only said that once there, I don't think it's so bad. Dussel is really still very harmless. Don't take it so much to heart, and you can return the favor when the opportunity arises.

The term "idiot" would be perhaps a bit too harshly chosen as a supposed retort, because it can sound kind of unpleasant. Maybe something like "you whistle"...that also has something of a certain kind of teasing. Bottom line, I would not attach too much importance to today's incident...in any case, you are now the one who has a low blow free Or you just let it be, because "The wiser gives in" was here in the context already and often you have nothing to "pay back" to get out of certain circumstances in the end but somehow better.I find revenge, for example, not sweet, but sometimes unnecessary, because there are more important things.

Well, there are worse things I would say.

Even though I wasn't there and don't know the colleague, if someone called me a "goofball", I would find it rather funny, or at least I wouldn't take it to heart.
