In this second episode on the topic of niceness v. kindness, Greer and Whitnie discuss the application in your work. Does being nice get you what you want or does your attempt to stay comfortable keep you in a perpetual state of stress?
Being kind is the better route because being kind is about being helpful in the situation rather than trying to avoid being uncomfortable. You may have to ruffle some feathers to maintain your boundaries or to get the outcome you seek. You have to decide what behaviors you are willing to accept and which don't serve you.
