I have been told by co-workers to not tell them they are doing a good job.

I have been told by co-workers to not tell them they are doing a good job. Really? Why? |

if you dislike, why do you not practice? Yes, I've already established that I'm a hypocrite. 
Thanks for the supporting vote though.  
At least my person is anonymous and they are not the subject here, only the illustration. I'm not going to give myself full credit as a bully on those minor infractions.
Your response was smart and sure. totally unexpected. I think you already know what to do, but perhaps you want permission to be rude?? |

A PERSON such as yourself is in a conundrum.
You can absolutely make them stop through the use of tact. So many times i have heard people say things such as "I tell it like it is" or "The truth hurts" the truth is... it does not have to hurt. this is what i would do. Listen to them bad mouth, and then counter, like if they say..."ANDY IS SO GROSS HE BELCHES WHILE HE WORKS" then you say, "ANDY GOT HIS LAST RAISE FROM THOSE BELCHES" lol if you compliment after their complaint they will stop..in my experience (like you did to me) |

Why? Which stupid thing might you be referencing. I'm sure there are plenty to choose from.

It just took longer than usual since there were others involved in the conversation and I had to wait for my openings and use more tact in front of the others than I might have used were we alone.

...If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. 
Does no one practice this curteousy anymore? 
If more people did, imagine how quiet the world would be. |
