These Rude People Tried to Get Stuff Without Paying for It, and It Severely Backfired
Why do some people think they are entitled to free stuff?
Chances are, if you have ever tried to sell something on the internet, you have had the pleasure of dealing with an entitled person who seems to think they deserve something for free. Or, if not free, then at a severe discount or with extreme inconvenience to you.
The same is true for artists. The number of people who seem to think that you’ll work for free is honestly just stupefying. These text message exchanges show the worst in people—whether they are trying to con you with a sob story or just end up being plain abusive. The message they send is clear: stand your ground and don’t let people take advantage of your kindness.
The whole time I was just thinking about this.
Money can be exchanged for goods and services.
