Positive advice, but people won't listen

Some people are like that, they don't like to look as if they were wrong, sometimes it has been noted and they just wont admit they are wrong and then some people just can't be told.

In this life, we encounter different people. We are all different. There are those who are open- minded while there are also persons who are close-minded. If we happen to interact with the latter, we just have to understand since we cannot let someone understand us if he does not want to. As long as our intentions are clear, we do not have to worry.

Hi,kingparker, there are some people who don't like others tell them they are wrong directly. Even they have realized their mistakes. They do this because they think admitting their mistakes will lose their "face". Therefore, to keep their face, they pretend to be right. You don't need to angry with his action. Maybe he is the person i described before. Well, if you keep an eye on how he will do in the next days, maybe you can find that he will accept what you have advised. Wish he is just wanting to save his face. Because mistakes can really bring about danger, that is the most important.

Well, some people just really don't learn from other people. In that case, let him learn on his own, from his own mistake. At least you've tried to give him what you think is good for him. In time, I hope, he will learn.

Some people have those kind of attitudes. For me, maybe it would be great to give him time to think. Maybe he had spoken in antagonistic tone because inside him, he felt trouble. Maybe he don't know what to do. Just give him time to think. Give him a space. After few days he'll know his mistakes. But if he will not, you'd better stay away from that kind of person.

your co - worker will not listen your advice. know why ? they are trying to prove to their selves that this is right, and nothings wrong. and then the argument goes on. that's people :)

You did the right thing. If your co-worker wont listen to you & makes the same mistake again then it seems that next time you may have to speak to your manager or boss about it. If you don't & it comes out that this co-worker has been making these mistakes for some time & that you knew about it but didn't say anything then it could cost you your job as well. This is not like when we were back in school & we didn't snitch on our friends. This is your livelihood. Now more then ever with the way the economy is we want to hold onto whatever jobs we have for as long as we can.
