answer:Well, in some cases because you should be appreciated…in other cases, it feels good because you’re narcissistic yet have nothing to show for it…that’s for people who like to show up to all the office parties (god, those are awful) so that they live it all up, the fake praise… If I don’t feel appreciated for my accomplishments (of which I’m proud), I let people know, I voice my disapproval and I sneer at the un-genuine ‘nice job’ when it comes my way…I just finished my job with the American Cancer Society and they praised me left and right for my work yet never bothered to do so when I was doing the work, nor do they actually know what my job entailed…so I let them know, I made fun of them at the parties, I made jokes that went over their heads but made me feel satisfied, I let it all out in my exit interview, etc.
