Constructive Criticism

I wish that people would not take constructive criticism personally. It is not meant to harm or make someone feel bad or worthless. Often it is to make everyone work more smoothly together. It hurts me when I try to tell someone about a particular issue that could make them better and more efficient and they make me out to be a monster. Hopefully, I will one day learn to give criticism constructively enough that it does not alienate people who I thought were friends. Work issues and personal issues are separate and should not interfere with either relationship overly much.
