So I was learning a new job today we are all required and my boss was passing by greets me and says you make it look easy?

[Olgaa334]

I laughed it off the comment and actually kinda thought it was not nice am I overthinking? What he mean by eat

[Mike_Whocheese_Harry]

why wouldn't it be nice? "you make it look easy" means you're competent and confident. Only women could take a compliment and get offended by it.

[slatyb]

It was a compliment -- you are learning quickly. Congratulations and best wishes.

[Olgaa334]

Ohhh ok

[beenherebefore]

Means you're pretty good at doing the job. It's a compliment.

[Olgaa334]

How do I don’t quite understand?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

It was a compliment, take it

[Olgaa334]

How so

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

Girl what? What do you think he said? You keep insisting on this and I wanna know what you’re afraid of

[Olgaa334]

How is it a compliment

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

How is it not? Do you think it’s an insult?

[Olgaa334]

I make it look easy so it’s actually hard?

[CupcakeTheDestroyer]

And how is that an insult? Much like how a ballerina makes a dance look effortless despite the fact that their toes are bleeding inside their shoes, you did whatever training equivalent was at your job. How is that an insult that you made something difficult look easy?

[AI Opinion]

It's natural to wonder about comments, but it seems your boss meant it as a compliment. When someone says "you make it look easy," they usually mean that you're doing a good job and handling the tasks smoothly. It's possible your boss noticed your competence and wanted to acknowledge it. Embrace it as positive feedback and feel confident in your abilities.

[Olgaa334]

You sure?

[FreyaRed]

It was a compliment even if with a portion of sarcasm.

[Olgaa334]

How?

[DryGermanGuy]

Do you plan to actually work there for a longer time? Then you need to stop with this mental circus.

[AngryCarl2]

He is giving you encouragement. That's what good bosses do.

[BarryLiverstone]

Doesn’t seem as nice as he’s saying you are not working hard. How’d it feel in the moment?

[NoDecision]

He told you to eat it?

[Olgaa334]

Really you know it has to be spelling error and yet you gotta pout it out

[NoDecision]

Well you just need some Spell Check and you won't have problems.

[NoDecision]

And that was "point" out, not "pout" out. 🙄

[zombiewoof]

Yes you are over thinking

[Olgaa334]

How zoo

[Olgaa334]

Soo?

[zombiewoof]

It could be just a compliment, saying you are doing a good job

[Olgaa334]

Ohhh

[ChicoFromThe305]

Eat?

[Olgaa334]

Really you know it has to be spelling error and yet you gotta pout it out

[ChicoFromThe305]

I'm just fooling around relax 😂

Although I still don't know what you meant to say tho which I was kinda hoping you'd correct yourself after I said eat 💀

[Danny_dan92]

Who. Cares

[Olgaa334]

Yea ok

[Danny_dan92]

Yeah
