LOSING MY FAITH IN HUMANITY AFTER THIS HAPPENED

If you give them an inch...These fuckers will take a country mile.
Next time, just say fuck off and go about your day.
There, problem solved.

I used to be like this guy in the video. I learned the hard way that if you put yourself in a position where the potential exists for someone to take advantage of you, then someone WILL take advantage of you. Agreeableness is a personality trait and it's not a bad trait to have; it has its advantages. But the downside is - in the absence of setting boundaries - there are people who will use it against you.

So I'd say don't lose your humanity (i.e. agreeableness, compassion, willingness to help others), but do realize the following:

1. There are people who will gladly take advantage of you if you let them. Don't think they respect you or like you just because you do them a favor. Quite the opposite: in their minds they see you as an easy mark, someone they can use and manipulate to benefit themselves.
2. Your time is worth something.
3. YOU, yourself, are worth something.
4. It's OK to set boundaries / limits / who you will do a favor for and who you WON'T do a favor for.

This applies most especially in a work setting. You're there to earn money; that's the purpose of work. Every time someone asks you to do something for free or work beyond the initially established parameters / job description (or, worse, you yourself offer to do something for free), they're essentially stealing your time (which equals money) from you or you're stealing it from yourself by giving away your time for free.

Now, when you start to set boundaries / limits, the people who previously spoke so highly of you for working for free are going to be put out. They're going to criticize you. They're going to call you selfish or mutter something to the effect of what they're asking of you isn't that big of a deal / that hard to do / that time consuming and that you used to willingly do it in the past. In other words, they're pissed that they no longer have free access to your labor and time and can no longer take advantage of you. TOUGH!

Set boundaries. It's OK.

I know Dr. Jordan Peterson is persona non grata in many of the MGTOW circles, but that doesn't discount his valid insights into human behavior. This short clip of him discussing agreeableness goes to the heart of the matter being expressed by the gentleman in this video:

Some people are really vain about their yards. It's only a yard!!! 200 years from today it won't really matter.
