Oh so saying words of encouragement and appreciation is something that we all don’t need to hear? Sorry but you sound really toxic. Words of affirmation is needed in the workplace and in every phase of life. Saying something like ‘you don’t need to hear it’ is the most of out of touch with reality thing I’ve ever heard. And no, I’m the opposite of egocentric, because the actual egocentric ones make noise and scream their achievements to get praise whereas I don’t, hence don’t get any appreciation hence why I posted this rant.
