Comment on Why does “come here” bother me so much?

As others have noted, this is a command, an imperative in grammatical terms. It’s offensive. The last thing I want to hear after a shit day at work is someone telling me what to do.
Maybe talk to him about this maybe get him to phrase it differently. “I found something I think you’ld like,” or something like that.

It depends on the tone. Lots of times I called a friend of mine to show him something cool. It was not a command. More like a request, a happy one. But I think her problem can be solved with simple communication: just explain like you did here and you even proposed solutions so you know what to do.
