I had a friend name jamaica, last exam week i was assigned to prepare our paper for the exam, and it cost 3 pesos for each member of the class.... i went to her and ask for the payment she said, "later i will give it to you". so i waited for almost a week for her to pay it, but she didn't. yesterday, she was assigned to photocopy a note for one of our subjects it cost 2.50 pesos each person. i dont have 50 cents so i ask her if i could it as soon as i have 50 cents. you do know what she deed? she frown at me, and i hate it. DUE TO HER UNFORTUNATE behavior i ask my other classmate to lend me 50 cents. he gave me me two pieces of 10 cents and one 5 cents.... hahaha here in the philippines that sort of money can't buy any piece of stuff anywhere...and she hated it...

just give to her what is due to her. no matter what amount it is, if sh deserves it, just give it to her. for many people, every centavo is worth the value of demanding it. for you, fifty centavos may be nothing much, but for some, it is something.

For melvinvinz the money the girl owed her was also something. The same rule should apply for all.

I understand that she may really be that hard-pressed when it comes to money, so maybe we can excuse her why she needs a week to pay you 3 pesos. But what I cannot excuse is her attitude. Just because you do not have the liberty to spend as much money as you want doesn't give you the right to be that rude to people. We always strive for equality, we always want to be treated fairly, rich and poor alike, but at that point, I cannot blame you if you give her the same courtesy that she gave you.

I guess so, she is being inconsiderate and the fact that she is a girl, i can sense her bad attitude, this is scary she is only student, what more if she is working already, hope she change her attitude before its too late for her.

melvinvinz Hey dont take it to heart. Some people are money minded. When others ask for what is rightfully theirs, they take offence. But such people when it comes on them, they will keep tab on every penny owed to them. Just dont do anything for such people next time.

Yep, she deserved it. She wouldn't pay up and now your just getting back, at least you paid, unlike her which she didn't. You could've just said, you didn't pay me with 3 pesos, so that makes us even. Now that would have made her furious.

Yeah, she deserved it. I would have reacted stating "you paid me 1 week for 3.00 and then you're frowning at me for 0.50? are you okay?" hehehe... I would have caused some friction but she needs to remember the golden rule: Don't do unto others what you don't want other to do unto you. hehehee.. Have a great mylot experience ahead!
