    Offer to meet the complainant in the thunderdome; or tell your manager that scary is a better word than intimidating.

      I like this idea. In reality I’ll just use bigger and more obscure words (definitely throwing cromulent in there soon).

      Give them something to really complain about.

        Consider writing like an aggrieved Victorian aristocrat, or a protagonist in a Jane Austen novel.

        My dearest Human resources department,
                                             I am writing forthwith, to complain about the insinuation that I am to be considered intimidating with my extensive use of longer vocabulary. To wit, I should also like to raise a complaint of mine, such as is within my allowance, that there is an intimidating lack of long words used in workplace communications.
        
        Good day,
        Mean Elevator
