Why do most people like taking advantage of quiet people, as if they think if someone is quiet they see them as "mumu" because it's really frustrating.

Someone been quiet doesn't mean the people dont know anything or can't handle situation.

Take for example, there is one neighbour I have, she has been looking for a house girl for months now and she was willing to pay 25k for it, she has even paid an agent for it.
So one day she met this house girl that was living in the same street with her friend and asked her if she can find a girl for her, the house girl said she has a Sister that she can bring for her.
So this my neighbour gave her 15k to bring the girl, then the girl came and start working for her, the girl was very quiet and humble, she can tell the girl to run up and down the street and the girl will do it without complain.

My neighbour have a shop so the girl was going to the shop and doing Sales girl and also doing house girl at home, after one month my neighbour didn't pay the girl saying the 15k she use to bring the girl is her first month salary.
The girl didn't say anything because she is a quiet person and my neighbour like telling everyone that this girl doesn't know anything and she is the one teaching her everything.
So after second month of working my neighbour finally paid the girl and guess what she paid her 10k, imagine in this economy she is paying someone that is doing sales girl and house girl together for her 10k and the funny thing was she paid the girl once the girl told her, her period have come and she should buy pad for her, then she gave her her salary and tell her to buy pad from it.

It's just funny how some people thinks they are so smart they can take advantage of people, anyway the housegirl shocked her last week and pack her things and left, she was so surprised saying it people around that have spoiled the girl for her because she can't believe someone quiet like that can have her own mind of making that decision.
Now she is looking for a new girl and anybody she met they are telling her 25k and more, funny thing was that the old housegirl could have accepted 15k only of she didn't try to be smart about the situation.

Dear God pls forgive me for being glad but may the hand of the good Lord rest upon that lady where ever she goes. I mean peopl are just unnecessarily mean and wicked

Same way I remember I and my best friend some years ago working for one man that was rich and very busy and the life of his business was in our hand cuz I and my friend were literally the ones overseeing everything that if we made 100k daily and told him we only made 70/80k daily, he'd not know. But then I and my best friend were very honest and faithful (and he knows bout this cuz he has tested us 3ice and we passed) but guess how much this man was paying us in Lagos? 20k and will still stress us and insult us like no man's business not until one particular day I and my friend sat up and gave ourselves sense and began getting our monthly salary in just a week. The boss will still insult us but we didn't mind as far as we were getting X5 of our salary monthly from his business we didn't mind infact, na my mama I dey send my salary give every month (I flex for that man's money no be small). twas NYSC that saved him from our hands. even after we thought we were a little wicked, the next person he employed after us I heard he used the man's money process his documents abroad and ran away

Most of all these bosses that feels wise, smart and wicked don't know they're shooting themselves in the Leg. very wicked Idiots

You don't like to obey?.(no oofense)

Some people are really taking quiet people for granted not knowing they're even more dangerous than they thought.



I wasn't surprised to see that it was actually a female behaving like that towards the house girl. They're naturally wicked.

We the quiet ones

She is not quiet, she's a mumu. I am a very quiet person and reserved, but that doesn't mean I can't talk when the need arises. If you behave anyhow, I will change it for you immediately.

She's not a mumu. A mumu will still be working there.

Everything isn't violence or screaming ontop of you voice because "you want change am for the person head". One can achieve same result in quietude via other means.

GreatVocalist:

She's quiet, persevering and respectful.

You're quiet, and not the other two. You're probably temperamental too.

That's the difference between you two. She's not a mumu.

I don't know about perseverance, but I can't be respectful to my oppressor, nor can I tolerate being walked on.

I love this topic because it addresses something I really hate. Nigerians love to take advantage of meek people too much.

Majority of people act razz and crazy, and if you don't act like them, they believe something is wrong with you.

Only people with the right mental attitude towards life, don't see the need to trample on, or exploit people they perceive as quiet, weak or vulnerable. I'm extremely quiet, but very capable of giving shege for shege.

I swear down,op has just written about my immediate pain......Deep down,I'm a very quiet guy.....And it always pain me when I see people trying to take advantage of my meekness......My banny don complain tire about my quietness but it seems I'm wired like that

Yeah! Just like how I'm always spending more anytime i go to market. Once they detect your nature, then, booom... inflation... 😂 😂 😂 I sometimes know that's not the price but... i hate myself sometimes..

Quietness has its disadvantages and advantages. The advantage, for me, is that no one ever suspect i can do evil. The disadvantage being unable to voice out during time of need and distress..

I pray one day, evil shall enter her house and stab her to death.

One skill that took me long to learn is the art of complaining. I have realized it's a necessity for survival and to avoid see finish in this wicked world that will ride on your calm nature.

Now, if you ask me for help and I come through, I will subtly mention how difficult the process was so you won't be eager to ask the next time. And even if you do, I will quickly remind you the tedious processes involved. Because people tend to think some things are easy to do just because you seem okay with doing them, not knowing you're just the "I can't shout" type.

Also, if you ask me how I'm doing, I will tell you "I'm fine o but *quickly inserts the current shege I'm facing*. That way, you will know I don't have it all, especially when it comes to finance.

Learn to complain. Learn to be assertive. Suffering in silence is not a virtue, else, you will become tissue paper in the hands of people.

Reminds me of the movie "The Count of Monte Cristo", if you haven't watched it, please do and see how a good man was turned to a wicked one. Most Nigerians are naturally sadistic, they get their kicks from being wicked and quite sadly, they prey on gentle people.

Personally, I don't have the energy for fire for fire. Former me will resort to what the lady did ; disappear and act like we never met. Win win for both parties. I still use the tactic once in a while tho, emi ika But now, I will call your attention to it. Infact, I don't think I have that patience as before, probably due to the shege-inside-sapa and adulthood factors.

People always want to take advantage of a quiet or gentle person because they think everything will be okay with them no matter what they offer them 😌 at my workplace I don't take loan and I don't borrow money from any of my colleague💁but anytime they need small cash like this they will turn to me to loan them money just because they know I sell some electronic online😒I do give them because I don't know how to turn people down especially if I have 😊but fast forward to last year November I took 300k loan and the bizz I used it for crash and I need to repay the money in 3months time 🙆I ask many people at my workplace to loan me small amount just to recover small but nobody fit lend me #1🤔 what they told me was I'm more than that😀 after I repay the money finish I'm still lending them money if I have but I don't makes it easier for them like before...

I may be quiet but not foolish, if u bring in the "I get sense pass u tactics ",hmmm! U can't see me coming .

Omor you can't be meek and survive peacefully in the street of lagos. You need to be LOUD AND BOISTEROUS. In other words, you need to dey change am for people steady steady anytime they Bleep up. Lasgidi guys fit relate with me.

Hehehe....
The girl is a good girl.
This is something I could do.
I also voice out sometimes depending on the situation.
Na gentle, I gentle. Not stupid.

Women are their own enemy

It's so satisfying when a bully gets their comeuppance.
Quiet people are just waiting for their moment.

They're the worst people to fvck around with.

You are not quite, you are stupid ✅

If there is anything I pray to God for every night. It is to take this quietness from me.


Like, I find it hard to talk, no matter how hurtful it is to me. And people have treated me like trash because of it.
