He refers to the hospital as the (my pdoc's name) hotel. That kind of banter is normal for us, so if he said what your T said it probably wouldn't phase me.

However, if it was said more seriously by a T that I didn't feel that comfortable with, I might be really bothered by that remark.

So you'll have to think about it in context (something none of us here can do) to decide how it was intended and go from there.

Well, in general we are both really good at keeping things light hearted even when we are talking about heavy topics. So, I do know we feel comfortable with banter, stuff said in jest. I know that he was serious when he said that... I think probably, that is why it is bothering me. Soemtimes, I guess it just helps to get out.. and process it with somebody else.
