Is it that hard to have tact?

r/

Life for example when someone makes a mistake correct them respectfully. There’s no reason to be so rude over something because if you’re going to be pretentious about it they’re going to ignore you and you’re make yourself look like an asshole which just waste everyones time.

    When they keep doing that behavior what do you do? How many times do have to tell them?

    Depends on the mistake and how often they do it, if it’s a serious safety concern or they’ve done it every time for the last 2 weeks then it’s way past the point of tact

    Depends on the person. If you’re talking in general it shouldn’t be hard to not be a dick, but lots of people find time to be and make excuses for their behavior, or just full on felt like being an asshole and got off on making somebody else feel bad.

    Depends entirely on context.
