It's a good trait to be generous - but it's also good to know when you're being taken advantage of. Not everyone has the skills to say "no" to moochers, users, and choosy beggars, so Bored Panda has collected some various tips. First, it is important to communicate the boundaries or conditions around what you are giving to them.

If you want to help, haggle or handout - go for it- but also know that it is ok to say "no"! Some people take generosity to mean that you can be pushed to give more and more. If someone has assumed that your niceness means that you won't say no, respectfully remind them of your limits. In some cases, people won't want to continue to have transactions after you turn them down, and that's ok.

Don't let yourself be consumed by guilt - set your boundaries and stick to them. Just because you can be accommodating doesn't mean you should. Most of us are taught it is a social norm to share what we have with those less fortunate, but giving back doesn't mean sacrificing your worth. Sure you can afford to cut a little off a price, but you are not responsible for other people's financial burdens. Remember if you give an inch to someone who is trying to take advantage they will want more.

Choosing Beggar

Choosing Beggar

Two years ago I saw that guy with the gas can begging for money. Tried to give him four dollars, but he said he doesn’t take anything less than five. After that I saw him there everyday for months. Turns out he’s a fraud with a new Jeep and a nice house. Been following him with this sign since.

I've had the pleasure of such an experience. A colleague of mine, who was in the marketing department (she was just playing Candy Crush all day long most of the times) came to me with a purely illogical and physically impossible request, for a packaging. I politely tried to explain her using her very limited technological knowledge and abilities, that it cannot be done, why it cannot be done, and that I'm not gonna waste my time doing that. I also offered her alternative solutions. Her reaction: "OK!!! Then I'LL DO IT!! It can't be that hard." I gave her my seat, took a step back and enjoyed the rest of the show. She sits on my chair, adjusts it for a minute, stares at the Illustrator window for 10 seconds and says "OK, now TELL me what to do next!!!" I burst into laugh and invited her out of my office before she deletes something important.

Lastly, don't feel bad when you shame a freeloader. We should always treat others with respect but in some cases, you need to be extra firm. "A freeloader really cares nothing for your needs and thoughts, even if they convince you that they do. They also rarely care for normal social etiquette."

Lady Wants Barely-Used Computer For $25

kaysimm12 Report

The expression 'Beggars can't be choosers'? first recorded into print in 1546, when it appeared in a book of proverbs compiled by John Heywood. The first form was written as 'Folk say alway, beggars should be no choosers.' Another similar proverb from a different angle is, 'If wishes were horses, then beggars would ride,' which is more rarely used.

The thing is some shops price match so telling them you can find the exact same product cheaper online or in another shop can be a huge benefit. Quite often they can offer you the same deal or sometimes even 10% cheaper.

Why do people ever think that it's ok, ever, to shame anyone in public, on social medias? Not even stranger, let alone spouse, child or friend. If someone would do that to me, we wouldn't be friends or in touch anymore. If you don't like something about me, talk to me, don't try to shame me online in front of everyone. So rude and disrespectful!

I have a tip for those with little to no income who want to read books: GET A LIBRARY CARD. If your library doesn't have books from a particular author you like, you can message them to suggest they acquire books from that author, they often take suggestions into account when purchasing new books. Don't read pirated books if you can't afford to buy new ones.

See, I had a neighbor that would take me out to lunch with her husband or friends frequently. Every time we went, I would order one of the cheapest things on the menu. One day, while out with her and her SIL, she called me on it after I ordered the salad bar and she and her SIL order ribeyes. "Why do you always order the cheap stuff?"she asked.. I said "I feel guilty about ordering too much when someone else is paying." She said "That ends right here.." turns to the waiter "She'll have the ribeye too."

Saw a news story once about a woman having a birthday party for her daughter. She advertised it as a build a bear party, where everyone would build their own bear. The catch, after they were all made and paid for by the parents, she collected them all saying they were for her daughter. Even after the complaints and the children crying she still had no shame. I assume that little girl lost a lot of friends (as she didn't seem to care, as long as she was getting bears). To add insult to injury, the parents all chipped in for the little girl's bear. You just can't make this stuff up.

One time another group under my employer was working over the holidays. I came in one day and helped out a bit, then decided to join them for lunch. I knew they were all being paid for but I assumed, since I'm not one of them & was only there that one day, that I'd be paying for my own food and just enjoying their company. I got more food than I needed so that I could have leftovers. But then their boss went and paid for me! I tried to reimburse him but he insisted, since I work with them a lot and had come in over Christmas after all. He wouldn't let me pay him back. I *did*, however, insist that I pay the difference between a normal-sized meal and what I'd actually gotten. I can't imagine being the sort of person who would do otherwise.

That is so wrong. She should be ashamed of herself. I once worked in a law firm. The building manager would cater in BBQ once a year for everyone in the building. This lady came prepared. She brought at least 10 to go containers. She would be 1st in line to pile up a big plate. Sat down and ate. Once she was done, she got up and started to pack her containers. Some people told her that there were more people coming to eat. She said "they had their chances. You snooze you lose!" So the next year, they hid the food and brought more out after she left. She found out so next year she came back after about 30 minutes. The next year to had a big sign up said Please No To Go. She still did it. It was embarrassing.

I once went to an elderly gentleman’s retirement meal where not only did one of his invited friend’s Son tag along uninvited but he brought his 30 stone girlfriend and unlike the rest of us who ordered just a main meal, they greedy twats ordered 3 courses, 2 puddings and about 8 pints of lager each. This was a retiring ex military man and civil servant gentleman with plenty of savvy though and he had approached the Father before the meal started and said they were welcome to stay but would be paying for their own meals, something the Father neglected to tell them - until the bill arrived... it was a really swish, seafront restaurant too, the Son’s face was a picture when he was presented with his own bill. “B b but I t t th thought Jim were paying? Dad, can you lend us some cash?” Bloody freeloaders.

When I was successful I used to often pay to take a couple of friends to dinner. Then one week I met up with friends and there were around 5 other people I'd never met. I said I was going for dinner as I ofter did and they came along. I did not invite them and they literally then expected me to pay. I refused and they didn't even have money. I paid for my own dinner and left saying I didn't know the others and had never met them.

We had to stop department lunches at work for this very reason. You take a team of five out for a nice lunch for a job well done and at least one of them will order extra food to take home every single time. We had to stop this when expenses were getting rejected because six people went to to lunch, but the receipt showed eight meals were ordered. Some people have no home training.

My brother took the family out to celebrate my birthday this year. Me, spouse, sister, niece, stepmom, brother & his fiancee. My sister ordered a meal for her husband (who wasn't there) to go. So, after dinner the check comes along with my sister's to go order. She didn't bat an eye at the fact she basically just tacked another $20+ onto the bill my brother was paying without so much as a "do you mind?". He had the good grace to just accept it, but it chapped my a*s something fierce.

We were out with an acquaintance at a coffee shop chain and I was going to buy my own drink, but at the last second she offered: "no no I'll pay, get whatever you want!" Dumbass me had spent the last 10 minutes going over my order in my head because I get super anxious when ordering and I just blurted out my order to the cashier which was a large coffee. I'm still mad at myself for not ordering a small because she was gracious enough to pay for it

I had this happen, I was selling a nail polish wall rack/shelf.. Now the woman knew how much it was because I advertised it with a price and when she messaged me she asked for a $5 discount, which I did. Anyway when she came to pick it up she asked how much it was and when I told her she tried haggling me down even more because she didn’t have enough money. Like wtf.

I actually had a guy standing on the corner at Granville Island in Vancouver, begging people for a dollar so he could buy a beer. He said "I'va had a bad day. I need a beer. So if you could spare a buck, I'd really appreciate it. And if you want to just buy me the beer..I'd be ok with that. We can sit and talk..but I really need a beer. Can someone just spare a dollar?" I walked up to him and said "I appreciate your honesty..here's $5..get two beers." He responded with "Bless you ma'am! I thank you and my liver thanks you." And off he went to the nearest bar.

Uhm..just because your roommate got a better job than you doesn't mean she should pay your way. Push the subject with her and she may realize she makes enough not to need a roommate anymore.....

I would get a cheap (less than $3) vase from a second hand store...go to their address. Put a note on their door and drop the vase so it shatters..then leave. And the note would say "Consider it delivered..you can keep your money."

That is an automatic report to ebay for violation. I've had people give those kinds of messages and they get a nasty reply with a violation report.

That's not how it works, she's the professional and you're her client, so she's in the higher position in that scenario

Possible reasons: - She doesn't have snow tires and is willing to risk her own life to get to work but doesn't want to risk her daughter's - She can safely get to work but her sister is somewhere with more hills / deeper snow, so less safe.

This pisses me off, that and the people that post on Facebook groups looking for babysitters and include pictures of their kids! Oh and they need them last minute. Like wtf?! You're gonna trust a complete a*s stranger found on Facebook to watch your kids! And they don't know who the hell is looking at the pics of their kids! Drives me nuts!

When did people start to think that they are entitled to something for nothing? Is it a generational thing? I don't get it. If the shoe were on the other foot it would be a whole other story.

Yeah, no. You need a model so you pay $150 for the use of the model's nails. That's how things work.
