Since her career choice at this point in time has been a disaster, and mostly self serving,... with her inappropriate interactions with other workers
Well the self serving thing and inappropriate interactions were obvious to me. I didn't realize the disaster issue with her career choice otherwise. I thought besides successfully working on her physique she was studying for and possibly taking tests to be certified as a personal trainer. If there truly isn't any difficult work she has done and it's all been pretty much about her looking good and getting inappropriate attention, then I agree that stating admiration and/or complimenting her wouldn't be appropriate and it's probably best to just not say anything.
That is an important point. Compliments should be sincere and deserved or else it causes more problems, IMHO.
Is there anything she's been doing that is worthwhile for him to admire or compliment???
