Have you ever feel like someone is trying to take advantage of your simplicity as well as your straightforwardness and as a result of that tries to used you in a way that tends to ridicles your own personal principles.


If the answer is "yes" then this article is for you, as I will be stretching out some of the effective ways that can be used to avoid and put a stop to this.


On a normal sense of life it is good and recommendable that an individual maintains his or her simplicity and honesty especially when interacting with people because like there always say "No one knows who's who"


So it is advisable that a person tries to be at his or her best behavior in other to be able to obtain favour from both God and man.

But what happens when simplicity goes wrong and a person tries to take advantage of you


Speaking out of experience when I first started my new job as a waiter I was at my best behavior and always very polite to my colleagues and officials, but trust me honesty and simplicity at the end went wrong as our management tries taking advantage of me.

How come you may ask? But the thing is that it started with some of my female colleagues, I could remember very well last month one of my colleague openly cursed my mom and I was so angry till the point that a simple looking guy nearly went rogue.

Also I remember very well over a minor lateness which just happened one time my coordinator responded to it by saying that he owns me, while me on the other hand in a polite way was trying to say that it's wrong for him to say that to me and he threatens to fire me if I talk


So you see that people will always try to make use of any means to take advantage of other people's simplicity.


All this happened last month and how I handled it was kind of amazing and with that I have managed to gain some reasonable amount of respect, for that my colleague that insulted my mom I kept quiet about it for two days and on the third day I called her face to face, and I bet she thought 💭 I was going to say something else.


But I confronted her in a very matured way giving her a very serious warning about mentioning my mom in a conversation again at the same time cut all thighs of communication with her and also gave her some valuable lessons in case of next time, and trust me she was speechless and at that point I knew that she will never do that again.

Secondly for my coordinator I knew very well that there's nothing I will do that will make him feel a thing because he's a very proud person who is full of himself, so in other to humble him I then reported him to the owner of the hotel who is very rich and he sat him down and lecture him of the dictions to use while addressing his staff


And trust me ever since then I have seen a huge difference both from my colleagues as well as my coordinator.
