twice today, my boss has called me "special"

[georgeharrison]

this is weird right?  It seems weird.  I worked hard today, so I am 99% sure he meant it as a compliment, but still...special?

[karebear219]

Yup it's weird.

[BlackCanary]

That is kind of weird. How did he say it? What tone of voice?

[dana86]

Yeah, I would say its a weird choice of word. Was he just saying it in terms of being a good employee kind of thing?

You are "Special"

[tacocat]

You are a Seattle Nextie.

WE ARE ALL SPECIAL SNOWFLAKES.

The first time, it was in the office and was like a thumbs up, you completed this thing I needed done "You are special." The second one, I was wrappng something up at home, emailed him that it was complete, and same response via his phone,"Thanks. U R special." Weird. I'm not offended or anything, its just a weird word to use.

[larzhope]

yeah, it is a very odd weird choice.

[Deleted]

Team weird word choice.

[InBetweenDays]

Very odd choice of wording. I don't think I'd read anything more into it (not saying you are) but that is weird.
