Criticism, either personal or professional, constuctive or not is hard to take. I had to learn it fast when I filled in as a receptionist for the company my dad worked at. I was young (18, 19?) and if I took everything he said to me at work personally, we would have fought all the way home.

Some people are really good at offering that contructive stuff. My boss happens to be one of them. He can advise me how to "tone down" parts of my personality when dealing with certian people or how to do something differently with out making me feel like a freak. But at 34 and many jobs and supervisors, he is the first.

Hang in there! Know your own worth! YOU know what you do well, and be proud of it!
