Flippant
<flip-pant>
playful; rude; impudent;
having a disrespectful attitude.
The student was flippant and the teacher asked her to leave the classroom.
Remember:
flippant reminds of "flip ant".
we flip something by turning it around.
an ant is small.
we make someone feel small when we turn around their words.
At work:
You will get better customer service if you are not flippant. Be nice and pleasant.
