Tolerance is an adventure

Something happened today that took me by surprise, but was expected when it actually happened. I work part-time as a designer in a Taobao store. One of the orders I took during the execution found that the customer's requirements were increasingly exceeding the scheduled workload. So at the end of a phase I decided to end the work after that. Prior to this I had far exceeded the reservation and settled the bill half the time before the ddl. I thought this was going to be a lighthearted checkout session. But I didn't think that it was because of my excellent performance that the client didn't want to stop cooperation. As a result, it is even possible to quickly and conscientiously overturn previous recognition of my work. Questioning my workload and trying to get me to do more redundant designs. The part-time job itself has nothing to do with the big picture, my original plan is that if they really need me, I can barely take over the design after that. But they chose the most wrong way, which is to fall black and white and conscientiously try to kidnap me with the vague boundary morality of workload. So I asked them to refund the bill and only pay what they think I deserve, and if they are not satisfied, they can directly waive the bill. I disdain this kind of dispute, not tolerance or maybe just my inexplicable sense of superiority. But their real attempt was to get me to do more design. Of course not. I thought about doing overwork for them in exchange for more greed. I don't want to waste another minute. The intervention of Taobao customer service made the battle situation of both sides even more chaotic. Taobao didn't even agree with my decision to waive the order. Surprisingly, another customer I dealt with who was already satisfied with the statement learned that my offer to reduce fees to other customers fell out of thin air. Asked why I didn't give him a fee reduction. Tolerance instead became a farce, which I did not expect. So for the first time, when I was handing over with customers, I nakedly expressed my clear conscience about my work progress, and bluntly said that tolerance should not be regarded as approval. I quarreled with our customer service here and privately messaged my personal mailbox and hoped to continue cooperation. I seem to have always been good at being vicious. All dust settled.

I was fortunate enough to come across this movie just after this thing was over. I'm not someone like Richard Jewell in my life. I've always been good at refusing, straight-ball solutions. It's easier for friends to get along with each other when they're clear about each other's boundaries. When I don't argue or even tolerate things that the customer service above can't understand, it's because of my hypocritical superiority. Because I really don't think it's worth ignoring. And I am shocked by what kind of social environment makes people learn to chase after victory, believing that the cunning one who seeks more profit is the ultimate winner. People are habitually aggressive, habitually taking the lead, and habitually preparing for battle. Even giving in is cowardly. To back down is to fail. As a result, concessions and tolerance have become very capricious. Because he will not be understood by the opponent or the people around him. Just a self-motivated and stupid carnival by myself. Maybe I can apply for customer service for my next small part-time job. Learned how to get in and out of the siege of profit before I actually entered the workforce.

    "15:17" is a miss, "The Mule" is a return to courage, and "Lamentation" is powerless.

    【A-】There is no doubt that Mr. Dongmu is already an unquestionable legend in Hollywood, and this "Richard Jewell's Lamentation" adds another glorious stroke to this legend. Dongmu's shots are so calm and gentle, like a sympathetic recorder rather than a hype creator. All events revolve around the characters to unfold smoothly. Under its old-fashioned style, all emotions are inadvertently hidden, leaving the audience to dig out the moving under the scenes. For such a story, the 89-year-old Dongmu showed his usual simplicity and sincerity. He left his emotions to the audience and praise to the characters, and he himself was only responsible for the purest narration. This spirit is what makes him great.
