I just started a new job two weeks ago, and there’s about 3 guys on my team who gives me the same compliment every time. is this normal?

Two weeks ago, I started a role as a supervisor (kinda like a team lead), and I notice they all have been giving similar compliments “we’re so glad to have you here you’re really killing it”, “thank you so much for your support, we’re so happy to have you” , one even said today “we’re so glad to have you. W really like you”, and other compliments to that sentiment. They also frequently ask me if im enjoying working there and what I think of the place where I work. I don't know if this matters but they all have been from guys.

Sounds completely normal to me.

ok good. I am grateful for the compliments. It’s just that it was just about every day for the past two weeks that they were saying it so I wanted to make sure im not misunderstanding anything!

[spartan55]

Misunderstanding it how?

[Asker]

like it’s insincere

[spartan55]

Why would they be insincere?

[Asker]

I don't know I’ve seen this happen before when sometimes guys will make compliments because they think the girl is cute, not because she’s actually doing a great job.

[spartan55]

Huh? Na, if they do (did) that's complete amateur shit. Let's put it this way, I've never known any guy to try that tactic. And we all know what is in each other's bag.

[Asker]

Well. That’s reassuring haha.

Like women don't know? Come on.
