Good day Fellow Mylotters, I can't really explain why for some reason, people will just speak tactlessly. As in they will not really think first the words that they going to say. Thus, I wonder what if they are the ones who heard and received those words. For sure they will feel hurt isn't it. In this regard, should I also do the same to them, so that I can somehow remind them of the attitude that they have showed to me. And if I do the same, its like putting the judgement in my own hands, isn't it...

I experience a lot of these when I was still in my previous job. But I always tried to be calmed during those times because I have a goal. That is to be able to get the job that I have now. I need to patient with all the people around. Well, the effort has been paid off. I remember my mother would always tell us that if we have nothing good to say at any given circumstances, we should zip our mouth. Have a great day!

Hi there Aries1973, Indeed, it is right, if you have nothing good to say, better be quiet at all than saying anything that can hurt others' feelings.

I supose they will learn as they work with people, co-workers, colleagues, family members, friends, and so on, that their ways have not been that fruitful and productive. The time will come for them to realize that they need to change their ways.

Plain speaking is a virtue, let your aye be aye and your nay be nay. Fine words butter no parsnips all the best, urban

Agree. Just tell them that they are talking tactlessly in a nice way so that they will also slap in a slow and in a not harsh way. Words are deadly.
