First, yes you WOULD get +2 points if you QUESTION his comments.

NOT if you GUESS at his motivation.

There's a big difference. I do see that my last sentence in that post said "question his motivations" when it really should have said "question his comment"

Here's the two different ways it could look as per his comment:
"that's great wfm...Good Job... hoping that will help me sleep better smile "

1) Your normal mode is to guess his motivation:
"He complimented me"

2) The "new" way is to question his comments:
"His comment was interesting. I understand it is great that a car was sold. Not sure about how great it really is, as it's just part of day to day operations. I don't know if this was any more challenging than any other sale so I don't think that my part in it was either good or bad. I'm sure he would not tell me it as a bad job if the sale was done. Very weird, if you ask me. Never mind him telling me that he hopes he will sleep better tonight. Unless the car was parked on top of his bed and now he can actually sleep on his bed. Ah well, glad we sold the car as it is adds to the bank... and what's the deal with the smiley face...???"
