Hi people, do you have the victim mindset? Do you often keep mum about unfair treatment? For example, when you get a less than satisfactory service from the restaurant you patronize, do you lodge a complain and demand compensation? Or do you just keep mum and blame it on luck? Or when you bought a product and later found out it's defective, do you bring it back to the seller and ask for exchange or refund? Or just hide it away in your store, hoping never to see it again?

As far as I know, the victim mindset is a character of people who always play the victim. They usualy claim that all problems are due to somebody else, everything is the fault of another. The victim syndrome never ses his/her role in any problem. It is kind of attention seeking behaviour, although it can have more sinistyer aspects. For instance, the kind of victim who is always running off to the Police for any kind of perceived wrong doing.
I would exchange a defecrtive product. I may not complain about less than satisfactory service from a resturant, it just depends on how bad it was.

i didn't have the victim mindset before and never ask for compenstion, but after i taking part in jobs, i saw more unfair things in the society and i think i should be regarded and treated fairly, so if i bought a defective thing i would go back and ask for compensation. i think you should protect you be treated fairly.

I create a shindig where I know my voice will be heard. If we don't do this those who give us a bad deal will not be aware of their mistakes and they will repeat them. We should not tolerate shoddy deals ever. After all we are paying for the services and should therefore be given a fair deal. Customer is king!
