You can do this if you want. I don't recommend it but I know it happens. Yes I have done it myself but I have regretted it as soon as it left my mouth. Sad to say it happens often in our business. Remember what go around comes around and it might come back to haunt you. The meaning of (e pyoon') to oppose with argument, criticize adversely; call into question. Unless you're a perfectionist in everything you do don't throw stones I have and when they bounce back they hurt. Join wordsmith on Activerain.

Its always better to make a friend in the real estate business...the deal goes smoother, and the hopefully the next one with that agent will too...Treat others poorly and we pay...you are right...

Good advice but not always easy to follow. Like you, I have those moments when I wish I could rewind a conversation and start over.

So in other works, you can be picayune if you oppugn or is it the other way around? I get so confused nowadays...

Where does it get you? If you are shallow it may make you feel better momentarily but it the long run it is the wrong thing to do....Whats the old saying? If you have nothing good to say...say nothing....But I can also say it is very hard to hold back sometimes....LOL

James, great post. Agreed. It is always a mistake to run down another agent.
