Do you fake smiles?

If you do, do you feel like a hypocrite?

 

I try hard to not fake smiles. I give honest frowns sometimes. Lololol. Or sometimes I think I mix smiles and frowns together. Lolol.

 

Some posters will come on here and say they don't fake smiles but they are hypocrites.In work you must fake the occassional smile.If a client tells a bad joke and he tells it badly are you going to stand there stone faced? Not if you want to keep the account.I smile like a Cheshire cat because I need to keep the client happy.
Also why hurt someones feelings? Even if you really are not in a good mood that day,a fake smile can make someone's day,so why not do it?

 

My grandma is almost the only one I do it with, because she has Alzheimer disease..
It's the only way I can keep her from crying when she's talking about things that have never happend, for example
things that she might have dreamt about and thought was reality.

Other than that I try to keep it as honest as possible and only smile when I really feel like smiling. =)
But of course, there are moments when a fake smile can make the day go a lot smoother than just
standing there with an unamused face after a friend or something tells a bad joke.

 

Ahah! Totally agree with you spoiltdiva. A smile really can make someone's day. Sometime we have to be hypocrites but it all depends on that person.
