Who are you saying was being a jerk Tom ?

It is appropriate to use that descriptor when the conversation or
complaint moves from the problem being discussed to a
personal/negative/derogatory characterization of the vendor or of the
vendor's staff.

More directly ... someone noting that they disagree with the MS
staff's characterization of  this particular problem as benign is a
properly civil (and very reasonable) complaint.  Someone calling the
MS staff unprofessional and incompetant is being a jerk.

I make no specific assertions, anymore than Google is making
assertions about others when it says that it's corporate motto is
"Don't be evil."
