This reminds me of the younger generation sometimes perceiving messages ending in a period as rude.
I'm also sometimes surprised by how effectively a simple statement like "I don't want to spend money on that" can shut down even a pushy salesman. Or even the simple "No." can work wonders.

"Good job..." seems almost sarcastic compared to "Good job.".
