In general, flattery will get you everywhere with me. So I always initially believe the compliments that my T gives me, but I have to wonder how genuine they are.

I mean, I don't believe that she is saying things that are outright false but I would imagine that T's probably give compliments a lot. I am wondering how often she says these things to everyone else.

It reminds me of when I was a server - I would get customers to like me by giving compliments right off the bat. I wasn't lying, but I wouldn't really call them genuine compliments.

This is a new T. I wonder if she tells all her clients that they are smart, creative, etc...

Has anyone wondered this? What do you think about it?
