If a person who treated me nicely. I am very pleased to them. But if the person treated me unkindly I would avoiding them so that I have no troubles and keep myself protected to those people who always troublemaker. I do not hate coz I know behind those events in your life its a sort of a test how long your patience to others. I know there are times that when someone who's always do some arrogant talk makes us feel uncomfortable,He/she just say anything/out of topic just to humiliate you in front of other people/co-worker showing they are high/superior than you are. I just stared at him/her and not saying anything but my thought says, don't let yourself thrown into lake of fire. If She/he is not right I am speaking my mind and heart that she/he too verbally abusive to a person like me who's do the thing and make the work good.

Hey blink, You a very wise person I can say that.. :) I would take your advice .. But yeah I agree. Especially managers or people with power think they can talk to anyone in anyway. Knowing they have the power to fire me trying to abuse that power for their self satisfaction. In then end that's is just wrong and.. They will get what's coming to them..

@ pay-out... thank you for that words of yours.I do appreciated it... I am glad you keep my advise,being a co-worker or a worker trying to do the best that we could possibly do in order to improve the company.Then our boss/manager just only say some foul words without noticing he/she hurting someone in which was/is not relevant to the cause of the problem. One day that situation will keep coming back. Coz I just noticed when we have problems, same situation or events and we already know it but we just ignored the same situation instead we burst out with anger coming from frustration/dissappoinment that we are facing in everyday Humans life. Life is too short payout,every words you stated are more than thousands times cursing yourself. What you do to others will remain scars and it's not gonna work to fixed with anger/hostile person. Just continue of what you do, and trust me more blessing you will receive without noticing it's happening..

Knowing that you speak heartily with integrity.As long as you are in a right position to respond, though some people gossiping you about what happened.Remember their trapping themselves with their own tongue..

Hey, payout. I can't hate either. I can get thoroughly po'd at times. It's difficult responding to some myLot discussions when I just want to let blast full force. So I've learned to just stay out of those.

I don't hate anyone either, but I notice stupidity miles awhile and my manager gives a face to that title. And .l I don't hate her but I won't ever like her I have to work with her but I won't conversate with her enough about things outside work.. So yeah she is a co worker but nothing more.

You don't hate your Manager because she is your boss and you have to meet her everyday if you still work in there. My advisor is very strict to me but i don't hate him also...but i really don't like to meet him everyday....i got much stress whenever i meet him... If i hate someone, i won't talk with them more and whatever they talk, i don't care at all...but i never speak out that i hate them...

Hey if that is your form of hating someone.. Then I'm doing just that.. I don't really look at her and when she talks or when I answer her.. I don't try to look at her.. At all .. And whatever she says.. I take in half of the information and ask someone else.. Hey if you get told whe nthe full time position was up people with college background and 15 years on there belt.. Apply for the job because I I was interested I nthe beginning but when I heard their offer. I denied them ... CHEAP. So... Retaliation is taking place and so.. I'm not up for that.. Say what ever you want behind my back but don't treat me different and have me work doing.. All kinds of crap.. Got tired of it.

I am a very passionate person and I can love alot and I can hate alot. I think People need to fight their own battles and if their God does it then how do people learn to stand up and be brave? I think that injustice is the most awful thing I ever go through in my life.

I was told that the battle isn't yours but it's Gods battle and sometimes it's better to let Od handle even the most simple things in life because he can handle it far more better then I can.. I fought many battles on my own and believe me most of the time it didn't end the way I wanted to. Feelings are hurt .. Etc I remember some old family friend I bought a car off him.. You build trust with People and they still ignorance in the relationship. Well yeah.. They stole basically 3000 dollars from me.. I decided to let God handle it even my own father wanted to go over there and fight him and get the money or even call the police and get the, involved .. I let GOD handle tha for me.. months later... Whole sale Shop garage place burn to the Ground.. It's Gone. So to me... People will get what's coming to them.. Andy just pray and pray and pray..

I don't think you can be too nice. Well.. maybe if you let people walk all over you. But I don't think that's being too nice, I think that's not standing up for yourself. I find it difficult to hate people too. Or even dislike people too much. Heck, I'm surprised when I hear people gossip about annoyances they find in other people, and I didn't notice anything.

Great attitude. Hatred destroys us not our enemies. The more we harbor hatred towards another, the more we go down to the pit. There's one person i really hate and i admit it's eating me up. I can't fix it, not at the moment. Every time i see him i want to kill him with my bare hands. Don't be scared, i'm not a criminal. If i were i would have done that two years ago! So i pray and hope that God will heal me and i'm trying to get out of this country so i wouldn't be able to see his sorry face.

Wow.. I'm not scared but,, wow I'm guessing that person has hurt you or has done something that just made you soooo upset and I can understand we are human and not perfect. I tend to hold a grunge against people for a long time.. And I do try to forgive them but it takes me sometime.. And .. I know I need to work on that because now I won't even look at my manager in the face. She better not look at me and be all fake because.. She is just,,,,,, ugh.l

I think the same.. Hey I know if I own my business.. Believe me.. It will be run much differently .. Things will actually be Fair.. And everyone will be treated the same.. @ my job.. The managers are .. Just horrible and they are a mess.. And not fair at all.. I honestly wish... Things could be different.. That changes my judgement of the whole job and sometimes I don't want to be there.

I can be the nicest person in the world.. But, I can say some mean things.. Believe me.. Most of the time I keep it to myself ... Because sometimes an exchange of words can get you in some deep trouble and.. Believe me I had a thing or 2 or 10 to say to my manager.. But I kept quite and smile.

See yourself as one of the few who is strong enough in character to not let others bring you to a hate state of mind! Just remember to be smart about your interactions with the people who will bring you down in life. You can still be nice, but learn from the experience and be wiser in your further conversations.

Thank you for your advice but yeah, I will do so.. I will try my best to be nice to those who are mean to me.. I will never hate anyone however.. I won't allow someone to disrespect me and think they will just think its okay I will make sure to express how I feel but not a a angry way. How my manager spoke to me.. I made sure to keep my distance from her.. She is FAKE.

i used to be nice payout, but now i am getting older and don't have time or energy for all that nonsense....nice guys finish last...now i just am myself...forget nice. having said that, i have met a lot of people over the years who are called "nice" but they are not really....they are just playing some kind of conventional social role...nice does not necessarily mean kind, and i would prefer to strive to be kind rather than nice...

hello payout to hate someone he must have done something realy bad to you or your family at least that is how i see things. in your case your manager made you feel bad but i think he was just trying to stimulate you in her own way. and dont pay much attention to that stuff she throws at you because that is just her job :)

It's not a good idea to become close friends with one's boss because once the boss knows too much, they can use it as leverage against you. It's best to keep them at arms length to be safe. You can continue to be friendly with them but not overly so. As for being 'too' nice, well, my motto is this, I'll give everybody the benefit of the doubt until they've proven me wrong then they're on the 'other' list. Depending on how they've done me wrong is if I'll continue to be friends with them because I won't let anybody run over my good natured self. No way! I should receive what I give and that goes for anybody. As for hating, I don't actually hate the person but I can certainly hate their ways!
