FML : He deserved it. Snapping ain't cool unless you're a turtle.

He deserved it. Snapping ain't cool unless you're a turtle.

Today, I learned that I may have caused a public speaker and author to be fired, because my response to his "open chat" question flustered him, causing him to lose his cool and snap at me. FML

I agree, your life sucks

You deserved it

When you deal with the public, you have to be able to keep your cool. If you can't stuff like this happens. It was his own fault, OP.

This is NOT on you. If the "public speaker" was rattled that easily then he needs a new line of work.

Unless you were a jerk trying to be "funny" I don't see how it's your fault at all. And even if you were a jerk, you still didn't make them do anything. But if you were a jerk, don't be a jerk.

What was the question that you asked him? That's what I want to know!

Don't blame yourself. If he works as a public speaker, he should be able to keep himself calm and present himself in a professional manner. It's not your fault if someone who has chosen a very people-centered career can't deal appropriately with people.
