I know of people who can't stand be taken advantage of. They might insist it's a matter of principle. Despite what people perceive of me, I have trouble standing up for what I think is my right. Even when I'm sure I'm right, I give myself lengthy pep talk for a semblance of reassurance. Unconsciously, I have developed this mental image of a weighing machine every time I encounter situations where I doubt my role. I weigh the pros and cons from all angles, adopting a tit for tat attitude.
But then recently, I have gotten tired of calculating so much over peanuts. It might be the right thing for me but not necessarily the right thing to do.
When in doubt, be generous. Not an easy thing to do.
