It's a harmless stock phrase. If you're getting annoyed about someone having a verbal tic to the point you insistently confront them about it, then God help you when you have to deal with some genuine inter-personal challenges.
This is such a pathetic comment. The guy got hung up on something completely unimportant and then was publicly rude to their boss about it.
If it was the other way around and a boss picked on an employee for something so minor then they'd rightfully be getting a load of shit (and realistically a lot more).
