Consumer #1

Dear anyone who knows how to read.

Here I am reading an eBay sellers Store page where she has to use her page in order to defend herself against "negative" transactions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

People are People, to be human is to err

Don't take it personal

How about don't get so bent up about stupid shit? I guess that's equivalent to Don't Sweat the smalls things?

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I think that anyone who is intelligent (meaning able to respond and interpret their surroundings) i.e. emotionally, verbal, mentally will most often say hey, I want to be good, I want to do the right thing, I want to help another human being.

Then you as a "good" person want to help your customer and then the customer takes you for an idiot or treats you like shit.

Example: Tonight, going to pick up Chinese food my bf walked into the place, with a guy arguing with the owner about how he didn't get what his order came with. The owner came out and told him he had ordered an appetizer and it didn't come with broccoli.
But finally the owner said you know what, I'll give it to you anyway (being a good person trying to please their customer) and then the guy said forget it and left.

Where did our culture learn such horrid manners? Is it so hard to take a step back and say, my takeout Chinese isn't a perfect meal, these people have to have a life too oh and its fucking New Years Eve dickwad.

Then my bf's response was to the owner after it ended, how the guy needed to chill out and take it easy, ended with us having lots of soy sauce and fortune cookies, because this is a family business and these people work every day, when do they go on vacation?

You lowlife/working stiff have the audacity to be rude to these people where do you think you have that right? None of us have the right to treat anyone so cruelly no matter how shitty our day was.

We are not feral correct? We aren't Mogli in the Jungle Book and yet we can demand, yell, act like children, like zoo animals that need to be kept on leashes and not on the streets and you still have faith in humanity?

Too many people are asleep when they should be awake, stop getting upset about minutiae and honest mistakes. Stop being so self-absorbed, when you are vain and empty and have nothing to offer the world. Nothing worse than being aware of how you are just a spoke in the wheel of life. Nothing worse than having a job and being unappreciated and undervalued.


CONSUME.MARRY AND REPRODUCE.OBEY.STAY ASLEEP


My New Year's Resolution isn't very common it is to be less distracted by buying consumer goods, it is to stay awake not asleep and to waste less time, since time is all we have until we don't.

Create more! Love More! Buy less! Waste less!
