If a woman calls a male coworker babe at work, would that be inappropriate behavior?

Yes

Especially if it makes you feel uncomfortable.

[Asker]

Do you think she’s attracted?

[Demonatrix]

Possibly, but if she says it to other people as well it could be just an expression she uses

Depends on the context and the tone of her voice. When I call people "sweetheart" it is 100% sarcastic and meant to get even for whatever they said to me.

Could be, depending on the context.

[Asker]

She called me buddy when the team was around but when we’re alone it’s babe

Nope. Sue her. She would sue you.

So you think she’s attracted?
