The Unconscious Unkindness

Share

Sometimes we may not realize but we are into the act of unkind behavior. We don’t realize the unconscious unkindness we spread and become part of it. There are circumstances and situations where we are rude and apathetic to others. It doesn’t matter about what the situation is or was but there is always a suitable and appropriate reaction and way to deal with it. deal with it.

Be kind to everyone as you may never know what the person is going through. What he or she may be currently dealing with. Everyone is struggling for something in his way. 

When we see someone being rude to someone, we feel it is inappropriate and wrong. Sometimes there is a situation in which we too are rude and unkind but we don’t realize and we can’t see it. 

Why People are rude and unkind?

Most of the people who are rude and unkind are struggling with their problems. There is something that makes them discontent. Frustration, stress, isolation, past experiences, unemployment, family problems, relationship problems, and many other factors create anger because they can’t help out their situation. Ultimately, they treat others with disrespect and become rude.

There are many things which we don’t care about much and consider it a small thing but are the Act of unconscious unkindness we are spreading

Rude to the waiter at the restaurant

We often visit restaurants, cafes, and bars to relax and have a good time. We have often seen people being very insensitive towards the waiter/ person serving you. Just because he is serving you doesn’t mean to belittle him. You can always be courteous.

Even sometimes it may happen that we may not be content with some of the services of the waiter or the attendee. In any situation, we shouldn’t be abusive to him. We can give a bad review to the restaurant or complaint to the manager but abusing and indulging in unkind behavior is not a solution.

Discourteous towards any departmental store employee or any sales executive 

We visit departmental stores and places we come across sales executives who help in selecting us the right product. We often get irate sometimes by too much interruption. It is a very simple thing to understand that they are just doing what they are paid for.

Troubling a newbie at the office

When a new person joins the office, despite making them comfortable, people are quite insensitive towards them. Workplace harassment and bullying is also not a new thing. We can never know how hard someone has tried to get a job and what it means to them. 

Any foreigner visiting your country

When you are rude to any foreigner visiting your country, it not only spoils your image as an individual but that of an entire nation. Some people try to scam rather than help out.

Abusive to the tele-callers

We all have at some point received marketing calls by tele-callers to sell their product or something. Most of the time we find it irritating and unnecessary. Still, it is in our hands to rather ignore them by showing you are not interested rather than being abusive to them. As the person calling is just trying to earn his livelihood through their jobs.

Being racist

This is one of the worst things to be a part of. Being racist is not only rude but harassment. Demeaning and being bias towards someone just because of his race, caste and creed are one of the worst unkind behavior towards anyone.

Body Shaming

Mocking someone’s shape or body type is not fun at all. We might think it is not a big deal but it has a strong mental impact on someone. Even if the person at receiving end is not acknowledging your comments, still it creates a lot of impact on him and his confidence. Body shaming is not only wrong but it is bullying someone.

Discrimination based on sexual orientation

You cannot discriminate or ill-treat someone just because of their sexuality. Mostly people ill-treat, harass and make fun of their sexuality even when it is not affecting them at all. It is an individual choice and the person is not affecting you with their sexuality.

There are many places and situations where we are insensitive and unconsciously unkind towards people.
