Depends on what you mean by "peeved." If you replied
in a manner you think may have been taken as
personally insulting, that could be a problem. Short
of that, do a quick breathing exercise and move on.
As a general CYA rule, always do your best to reply in
a strictly professional manner. (You can always turn
the air purple after you hang up the phone.) Do
recruiters and companies maintain blacklists? It's
illegal but if they do it would be practically
impossible to prove, and there's no good point in
making them want to do it.
