Well... normally I'm tossing the JA that makes a comment like that. However, you opened the door a bit by being snarky first. Why'd you say that - did it make you feel wittier than him?

He then complains to PU that he has a right to complain even though they were good calls(?)

He has no "right" to complain about anything. He might get away with it... but there are no "rights" here. He's on thin ice and surprisingly not ejected after telling you to shut up. I think he should count himself lucky at that point.
