1% increase??!! Should I be insulted or what!!??
Insulting?? Should I say something?? Is this insulting???? I have been with my company for 3 yeas now. The first year I was given a 3.5% increase on my pay, last year 2.5% ( and I was out for 6 months, and came back a week before evaluations on maternity leave) then this year I got 1%!!!!!!!! 1%!!!! Should I feel insulted, or is a 1% increase good?? I totaled it up, and it gives me an extra 280.00 per year!! That doesnt even cover gas to do all the running around I do for this place!! What do you think I should do?? Say something or not. So 3 years, and I have gotten a total of 90 cents is good??!! I live in central mass where the average house costs 250,000.00, and average rent is 1000.00 p/month. We are eligable for up to a 6 % increase each June. Let me add that this is a VERRRYY successful company!!! I only got 11 cents!!
What should I do when I'm insulted and depressed?
One feels threatened when one faces physical danger, danger to one’s life. This is simple to understand. Apart from immediate physical danger, all dangers are psychological discomforts. Can one see this? One feels threatened on facing psychological danger (loss, defame, relationship problems and so on) and reacts to run away from this discomfort. Can one bear, absorb this threat as it arises? When you are alive, you can bear, absorb any psychological threat, discomfort. You are open to the limitless field.Brain experiences uneasiness, natural friction when you face any unpleasant situation, any irritating situation, when you feel insulted, when you face loss, when results are not as you expect. This friction is life energy itself. The illusion takes as if this friction will be or can be solved or removed from the mind. Dullness, decay sets in.Once you are okay with this friction, you are attuned to supreme relaxation (with unending friction to operate). You are in the limitless field.We come under the illusion as if result or tomorrow will make us free, free from compulsion, free from confusion, free from discomfort we are experiencing now and stability will come. Can we feel rested now (when there is no immediate danger to life, as any confusion, compulsion, discomfort is psychological discomfort only) and see the emergence of action, see the emergence of imagination.

What should you do when you got insulted by someone you have helped?
Morning!You say he let you do too much. That was you fault. He couldn’t force you to do anything. You could have said no. You leaving was your choice, so no one to blame there.The guy insulting you was him taking a stab at you for not making him responsible and accountable in the first place.As far as what you should do, you said you left the position. Do you still see the guy? If not there’s nothing you need to do.Now that you have a new position, if something similar happens, where someone wants to take advantage of you by pushing their responsibilities on you- learn from the prior experience, say “no”. Let that person know that you have your work to do just like they do, and they need to be responsible and accountable and not try and take advantage of other people.People might still try to insult you with a response, however you have no control over peoples responses, just your own. Sometimes no response is necessary. Just make sure you don’t allow people to take advantage of you.
My teacher insulted me in front of the class. What should I do?
I'm a girl in high school. My teacher is also female. It was the beginning of the period and all my classmates were talking to each other. I was sitting in my assigned seat in the middle of the class. I wasn't really talking. A girl behind me asked for a paper and I handed it to her. That's when my teacher called me out . It had nothing to do with what I was doing, she said my name to get my attention, and started talking about my hair. (My hair is unruly.) She started saying how she sometimes just wants to take me to the hair salon to get it done cause it's so fluffy and puffy. This week is also spirit week and yesterday was decades day. She asked me when the day was, (rhetorically) and then said how 80's day was yesterday. All this had nothing to do with the subject, my behavior, or really anything. We didn't have a bad relationship and I thought we were on good terms. Then all of a sudden I had to be a victim to this? I didn't respond. I was just that shocked. Everyone heard, everyone watched. It wasn't like she approached me, no. She was standing in the front of the class saying all this. I just couldn't respond because it was so random, unexpected, and out of complete nowhere. She completely ridiculed me in front of my peers. So, forget the fact that I didn't defend myself, forget the fact that no one defended me- my question refers to how I should respond. I was thinking of reporting her, but will it accomplish anything? I don't want to switch out of the class but I'm scared if I report her she might find out... She can't really do anything to me, but IDK.... I guess it's just me being scared of nothing. I still just can't believe it happened. :( It feels like I imagined it all, when I didn't. It happened. Should I talk to her? Or report her? Or ignore it? o.0 Also, if I report her, what will happen?

How did you face a situation when you got insulted?
My life has been filled with insults aplenty.It first started when my Grade-4 teacher called me "mentally unstable" for doing the wrong homework. Long story that.Then it was my courting days, courting the prettiest girl in school specifically. I was not only abused in front of people by one of my rivals (even though I stood no chance, to be honest), but was also touched in wrong places by him, perhaps his attempt to scar me for life. Nice try, kiddo.Then it was a long time before I got insulted again. Few days ago, specifically. I am (being introverted) extremely quiet among my complex people. I used to roam about with the same-aged people. One of them, the "cool dude" or what I 'affectionately' call the #swag dude, took to insulting me. Few days ago he took it to a new level. Well done, lad. And to say you are younger than me! What did I do through them all?I was silent and strong.If you react, they will insult you more. That is what I have found. So I don't react. It is often like a drunk man asking for a brawl. They intend to agitate you. If you are slightly smart you will walk away.I chose to be silent, and I chose to ignore their words. It is not easy. Yes, even I have a certain limit. Thankfully none of the insults I have received have crossed my limit. I always tried to take them in good humour. Yes, often I fail. There is no humour in being insulted about my sexual preference. But I try.Thanks for the A2A!:)
What is the best revenge a boy can do to a girl who insulted him in public?
I don't care if I get downvotes for this answer, but I am writing what I feel. First I would like to tell you guys that I do respect woman. I would like to share 2 experience I faced :I was walking on foot path, from opposite direction a girl was coming doing something on her cell and collided with me. With the disgust looks she abused me. Result: Around 4-5 people were looking at me with disgust looks. What was my mistake?? I didn't said a word.I was waiting for friend in parking sitting on my bike. A girl who had parked her bike 2-3 parking slots away from my bike was struggling to take off the bike (as it was crowdy parking). I helped her. I didn't get a thank note, instead she said 'akal nahi hai kya kaisi bike lagani chahiye?' (Dont you have sennse how to park bike ?). Then she gave disgust look and rushed away. Result: Around 4-5 people were looking at me with disgust looks. What was my mistake?? I didn't said a word.I wasn't wrong but still I got humiliated. Why because she is a girl. I am sorry but I strongly feel that I should have abused her back. Because I do love my self respect. Feminism talk about women should be equally treated as men, then why this can not apply here.
What is a good way to behave when you are insulted in public?
It depends...If a friend insults you, laugh it off and say "At least.....(I didn't sleep with so-and-so)" or something personal that you don't actually mean or care about, as long as they didn't mean the insult to be hurtful. If it is a coworker or even still a friend, play it cool until you can pull them aside. Tell them that you didn't appreciate their comment, you actually found it quite rude. Ask them why they felt it was necessary to insult you in public and get to the bottom of the problem with the intention of avoiding it in the future. If it's a stranger- they don't know you! They don't know what you've been through! Everyone has personal problems, maybe they're coping with something very difficult to handle and stepped out of line, maybe they were abused by their relatives when they were younger, maybe they're just an asshole. Brush it off. Insults are a form nonproductive communication. Try to stay kind and you'll be okay ;)"If you have to choose between being kind and being right, choose being kind, and you will always be right."
