Is there even any possible way to piss off an godless heathen if you are a Christian? I don't think there is, since they don't believe in anything worthy.

Kind of tired of getting sniped at here at my job in a Catholic hospital. My godless supervisors are puzzled why I get mad, rather than accepting the playful slap across the cheek.

Don't let what they say get to you.

Act as if you didn't hear any slights or blasphemies.

The sacrilege at a novus ordo church is just the tip of the iceberg to what you'll see in a "catholic" hospital.

You see, I was thinking something like: "Golly gee, you're funny! Wish I could be a faithless coward like you!" Or something like that.

Do your hospital policies cover harassment. LIke rotten jokes and such? Can you take a step in that direction to calm it down?

But that would not be an honest statement, it would be sarcastic and it would show them that they were getting under your skin.

You need a few humorous and clever quips to come back with (hopefully rendered in a charitable fashion)or take Capt's advice. But I prefer my way, of course. Depending on exactly what they are saying what you come back with.

Any particular recurrent ones you can tell us about?
