Did my co-worker really just do this?

Moondrelor

Wow. My co-worker just gave out my home phone number to Century Link without consulting me about it first. The building can't call outside the building to Hickory landlines and I used my home phone to test it, and then go goes and takes that number from my work phone and gives it to Century Link for them to test shit? Like holy fuck? Do I have a right to be mad? Or am I over reacting? He didn't even ask me if it was ok for him to use my number?

Welp, Idk what you can do, what does your heart tell you? If I were you, I'd probably giving him a slap in the face. Just me tho. Not saying you should.

I'm just not sure if I'm over reacting about this, or not reacting enough about this. If he would of asked me I think I'd be fine with it, but what really gets to me is that he didn't ask at all. He just went straight to giving them my number.

Dafuq! I would be mad as hell! He doesn't have the right to give out your phone number even if it is your boss. I would punch him tho.

well.. sit it out, use the propper channels to voice the incident.

 

tell whoever is above you that it happened, and you dont want it happening again.

if CL uses your home phone number for stuff outside of "the testing" you take it up with CL.

That's totally how I feel! When he got off the phone I said, "Um... Why did you just give Century Link my number?" And he just said, "Oh because they needed a number to test our problem." Which, doesn't make quite much sense considering, they are outside our building...

I have an idea. What about being an adult and actually confront him about it as opposed to complain on a forum?

How about he is been an adult about consulting/complaining on a forum instead of just acting without thinking?

 

Let it pass for at least 24 hours and let yourself think about the situation properly before you act whilst your still annoyed. I would probably personally ask him why he thought that it was fine to give your number out without permission and if anything comes of it then bring it through the proper channels.

I'll probably end up doing this. I have a tendency to over react over things, which is why I didn't confront him quite yet besides asking him why he did that.

With your location I would've expected something far more sinister. :P

 

Think it over, discuss it with a few people close to you, and see what they think. This sounds like a very illogical course of action for him to have taken. At the very least just make it clear to him why you are upset and what not to do in the future. Telling a higher-up may be necessary if the two of you can't sort it out among yourselves.

 

Give yourself time to cool down for now.

The people down here are very disrespectful it seems. I haven't lived here too long.. Almost a year.
