Well I didn't read the thread really, but...

I regularly greet my coworkers with a stream of profanity and abuse. I'm a tradesman, and I think it's more or less expected, among equals. I frankly can't imagine getting worked up about these sorts of comments. I mean, it wouldn't even occur to me. This is just basic communication, our way of saying, "hey dude, you're all right."

They either like you, or they really don't like you. I'd think you'd know by now. Either way, don't take it personally.
