WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“He is just an inexperienced newcomer who messed up; I'm scolding him in front of you so you don't take offense.”
💡 Cultural Insight: Discipline Subordinates to Pacify Superiors

In administrative and corporate culture, immediately chastising your subordinate in front of an offended guest displays deference to the superior and preempts harsher retribution.
