We had someone at the client make a really sexist comment to one of our junior staff and our SM told the client sponsor if it happened again either the guy who said it would be gone or we would. This seems way more interesting though.

This is another example of people pretending the world of corporate work is a high stakes game of life and death. The client is a small child having a tantrum in the body of a man with poor character and a most assuredly unhappy life. There is no real toughness to be had here fellow adult toddlers who say toughen up. Anyway OP I hope the rest of the project goes ok or at least stays exciting with more childish antics

Male client male SM. Stressful time in the project hence why we are onsite on Friday. He is a senior client counterpart and it was back and forth of heated discussion. SM got fed up and said something along the lines of if you're unhappy take it up with the sponsor. That's when client stomped out. IMO the SM did the right thing and called it an accident and not let our team go into panic mode. Gives him time to speak with partner on what just happened
