We've all looked like twats at one time or another, most at some time in the work place (some still call me the granny shagger at my old local I used to asst manage, she was only 36 but hadn't aged well).
Part of life, call it a lesson, get over it and be stronger or let it get to you and be a doormat type. Hope for his sake he does the former.

Maybe he will learn his lesson and behave more professionally next time!

Bless they were mean to make him answer the phone if he was new.

Its part of your scholarship at the university of life.

We all used to send the apprentices for a Long Weight, a bag of sparks, a left handed screwdriver, Tartan Paint........ We had all had it done to us. All it did was made you think about what someone was asking you to do. With a bit of luck you have caused the wombat to think about customer service and be a bit more helpful and courteous next time someone else calls for help.

Well he was 16 - surely he is capable of answering the phone and saying something, even if it was 'I dont know' - best he could talk on his mobile all day!

think teenagers text more i know my son reads a text then puts his phone in his pocket to reply to it

Must admit after I posted my last comment, I did think that. Still, he should be able to speak, even if it is a grunt - they are all good at that.
