I went to pick up a friend on a night out. Called him when we arrived, said he'd be down in a moment. 15 mins later still nothing. Called him again and he said he was going to come down after watching Buffy. Told him he'd have to get the train and drove off.

People Are Sharing "Unwritten Rules" Of Life That Everyone Should Be Aware Of (40 Answers) When you have a complaint with a retail store or business, please remember that the person you are speaking too (or yelling at sadly) is just the one that happened to pick up the phone or is standing at the till. they likely have nothing to do with what went wrong and have little sway in what can be done to help. They dont need to be yelled and screamed at for something they did not do or is under the control of a corporate office/higher up.

Similarly, never ask when they plan to have a child, or why they don't have children already. It's not your business and you don't know what trauma you may unveil. Maybe they had a miscarriage, maybe they did have a child who died at birth, or maybe they have been struggling to get pregnant.

Actually not, in a lot of stores you have a designated area near the cabins where you should leave them. Especially during the pandeminc it is not so smart to put your clothes back with the others after you have tried them on, they could carry nasty things.

If you make an appointment and can’t keep it, cancel or let someone know. I manage sales for a car dealership and we thrive on appointments. We understand things come up, just let us know. That simple gesture goes a long way.

Car salesmen can be very pushy though! My mum ended up making an appointment because the person talking to her wouldn't take no for an answer but she had no intention of buying the car and didn't attend. I understand what you're saying but she didn't want to have to ring and engage with him again, having been intimidated into making the initial appointment.

Sometimes people give you their opinion but you haven't been talking to them. You know, complete strangers. Happened to me once while out grocery shopping. I put a milk carton in my cart and some random dude walks by telling me not to get this milk bc he finds it disgusting. I liked it. I never asked for his opinion, nor did we talk after that. Or ever meet again.

Exactly. Maybe the person didn't ask for advice but they're venting about a problem. A problem which you know has a simple and obvious solution because you yourself had the exact same problem earlier. This is called shared experience. With that said, if someone wants to vent, just let them vent first.

If you make your opinion known in a general term. It’s going to be much better received if you don’t use the word should or shouldn’t. I often use the term “you might want to consider” or “maybe you want to consider” It keeps people from getting defensive immediately

If you don't want people to respond then don't tell them your problems. Other people are not your psychological dumping ground. The average person wants to help their friends and loved ones. If you just need an ear, then specify that. Otherwise, if you aren't looking for a solution then you are just pissing in the wind.
