Here's A Great Way To Deal With A Rude Comment

Here’s a great way to deal with a rude comment… 

It happens to all of us -- you’re talking to a friend or colleague who says something incredibly rude, and you’re just flabbergasted. Firing back just escalates the situation and makes things worse.

So what should you say?
