Treat people as you would have them treat you....

I have often seen this happen from around here, but rarely or never have i seen someone make such a scene when being helped. So what if the person expects a few pesos for the service that he rendered? Well i personally would not mind being helped for a few pesos and i would willingly give it out to the poor guy who is just trying to make a decent living. You friend's action was totally uncalled for. I think he does not have to do this, he could have just told him he could do it himself, its not like his side mirror was being stolen with the kind of reaction that he did. I mean, whey does he even have to make a scene and cause this man to be treated this way. He is just not a very good person, treating someone this way.

You will only prove the greatness of a person by the way he or she treats another. Greatness is not really or merely about accomplishments or fame or riches or beliefs. Greatness should be the product of how, by the way you treated another person, the people around you have been touched by your kindness, generosity, humility, thoughtfulness and even simplicity of manner and gestures. People - either those who have known you for life or long enough or those whom you come across for the first time, will remember you and regard you as either great or the other way around with your sincere acts of kindness, honest generosity, humble ways, caring and thoughtful attitudes and behaviours and your simple, uncomplicated manners. I would always want to be treated nicely because I am somewhat sensitive, hence, I always have in mind to treat others the way I would want to be treated. Sowing and reaping - if I sow kindness, I reap kindness. In my heart I know that most of the people that God has placed in my life see a measure of greatness in me.

Maybe the social changes your friends. When I was a child, I preferred beautiful one than ugly ones. It can be called human nature. But when I entered the social, people with good dress, good looking, good watches or good cars can usually have more advantages in dealing with other people. People usually consider the one with many good things are successful and powerful, so they prefer to trust the one. Though from my own experience, the fact is not right.

I totally agree with you. I don't like it when a guy throws a trantrum anywhere in the house or in public. I think it shows how inmature and rude they are. I would never be able to be comfortable hanging out with someone like this. Any little thing can set them off and you would never see it coming. My hubby would have just said no thank you I can do it. He would not react in that manner Thank God. Well I wouldn't be with him if acted that way, period. I would love to know what was said once he got back in the car by either one of you?

Sometimes I think that we forget the golden rule. If we want to be treated well by those around us, we should respect them and treat them the way that we want to be treated by hem. What goes around comes around and how we treat others is a reflection on our lives.

Hi ! Yelling to others defames not the gasoline bot but himself. If he didn't like the service of that guy , he could have refused it in a very kind manner . People working in hard labor needs same respect as those that are having blue color job , there must be no color or status distinction. No one has the right to degrade his fellow , remember life has no certainties , what goes up will someday goes down. Life is like a wheel. Tomorrow is not a promise , what if twist will happen , he would be the gasoline guy and that gasoline boy will be the one driving a Porsche car.Will be happy if same will be treated to him ?

That must have been quite the shock! I'd have been very surprised. Hopefully this is not how this guy behaves in real life and he was just frustrated, but even so, that isn't really appropriate behaviour.

I believe that we are naturally born with goodness in us.But because of the environment that surrounds us, we got easily affected. There are times where no matter how we would like to be calm we cannot do because of some problems that some things or people bring along our way. If our mind is not at peace, we become angry easily and say and do things that is not good. We cannot fight easily these kinds of emotions or actions but somehow we can do something to lessen it and that is through solemn prayers to God asking Him to guide us and show us the good way.

You can tell a lot about people by watching how they treat others. It really wasn't necessary to be so rude to that man. He's doing the best that he can to get by and finding a real job can be really tough these days. I get really uncomfortable when strangers approach me like that but I'd never scream and swear at someone like your friend did unless the person was actually threatening me. I probably would've turned him down when he offered to pump my gas for me... but he could wash my windows instead. I'm short and it takes a lot of effort for me to reach the middle of the windshield and the rear window. I usually ask my husband to do it but I'd gladly pay someone else if he wasn't around and they needed it.

Maybe your friend or someone he knew had previously been pickpocketed or mugged by someone approaching him in this exact manner and a scene was necessary to keep this present guy at arm's length? I've been robbed once at a cash till. Ever since then, anyone who approaches me at one of those gets an immediate earful - If I were strong enough he'd get more!

it was wrong of the yelling and the words used when a simple no thank you would have done well
