Do you think it is a compliment or an insult to have the nickname Radar O'reilly?

My boss recently nicknamed me Radar O'Reilly from MASH. I have never watched the show but want to know if it is a good thing or a bad thing.

I would say he has just paid you a very high compliment. Be happy to have such a good boss who obviously favours you highly.

Radar O'Reilly was a character from M*A*S*H. He always seemed to know something before it was going to happen...so it's probably a compliment!

I'd prefer Radar O'reilly to sloth from the goonies!

i'm a fan of mash and radar was reliable honest and hard working
he had an odd pre-cog capability and that's how he got the name
it is an ok name
be thankful you weren't named frank

It's most likely a complement coming from a boss!
