Had a vendor make a visit to my company a while back and during the visit he was dropping the F bomb left and right. I would have thought he would have toned it down as my wife was in the meeting. After he left I told a manufacturer’s rep about it and he contacted the guys boss and the next thing I know the guy is apologizing. Was not trying to cause him problems as work, just asking for a sanity check.
I have been in probably thousands of board and business meetings over the years, and don’t recall anyone ever being gratuitous in the use of the F word. I do recall one of the big bosses at Harris Broadcast in Quincy Il complaining about their director of sales being too salty for high end businesses meetings. Then yesterday I was taken to task by a video blogger which had done a pretty good job in his Tesla review except for the F bomb every other sentence. I told him it was about as welcome as a fart in an elevator. He thinks I am too old to have a valid opinion. I guess he is one of those thin skinned millennials... TV shows it all the time, but I don’t think it is common in the business world. Perhaps Utah is in a bubble?
