That’s a bad look. He may be smart but that’s really unprofessional. You call them whatever you want behind their backs. You don’t insult clients to their face no matter how stupid they are. He’s lucky he kept his job.
Also it shows a lack of empathy. 9/10 times it’s not that the client is dumb, but that they’re unfamiliar with processes, recieved conflicting information, have other requirements you don’t know about, have personal things going on, or an endless host of other factors.
It could even be that you didn’t do your job properly in explaining or walking them through. Like if I was a customer and the client-facing representative was so fragile that he’d blow up in my face over a minor inconvenience, I probably wouldn’t feel comfortable asking for something explained a second time.
You don’t insult clients, period. You never know who is listening, who will rat you out, etc. Worse yet, you might send that email to the client too by mistake and get fired.
