Compliments You've Received

This one really stuck with me. The truth was that it was a crappy job and thus lots of us had a bad attitude at work, including me. It showed me that people can still appreciate you, despite an environment that often leads to mutual hostility. I admire her honesty i ...[text shortened]... ng both my good and bad qualities. Give me that over a phony, exaggerated compliment any day.

I know what mean; someone who compliments you when they don't need to despite the obvious discomfort it is causing them are my favourites.

P.s what does TMI mean, or do I not want to know?

TMI "Text Me Immediately"

I think he's keen for you.

It must be that Borg avatar it is irresistible.

That's what it is.

On a totally unrelated note, please PM your cell #. Have some things that need discussed off-line.

Yesterday a co-worker told me, "I totally get how you think. I respect it and I think the same exact way." It would have done quite well as a compliment, if it weren't for the fact that he's quitting and everyone hates him and gossips about him behind his back.

Still, I'll take what I can get. Slim pickin's these days.

My boss recently said I was too good for words.

Well he never exactly said that.

He said. "You leave me speechless!"

You left out some important details, so I'll fill them in:

Former living co-worker: "I see what you're thinkin."
Chesspraxis, wielding a bayonet-tipped flamethrower, dripping with blood: "Trust me, you don't."

Thumbs Down, if you think about them, are a form of left handed compliment... in the sense that at least somebbody isn't ignoring you.
