I actually thought I was alright when it comes to saying "No" to things. But lately, I've found myself becoming inreasingly uncomfortable with that measly two lettered word. In work, the HR manager changed the roster on Monday without telling anyone. I was originally scheduled to work on Thursday evening and have Saturday off (yippee for me) but then I happened to glance at the hours again and all of a sudden I was off on Thursday and doing 12-8 on Saturday. It was such a pain ass though, because I had made plans for the whole day, not to mention the fact that it's my Mum's birthday. But yer man was like "Ah it's fine" like as if it wasn't a big deal. I really should have stood my ground and said no, that it wasn't fine...but I caved! WTF?!
Also, I agreed to go out on a date with this guy when I really wasn't ready to. Instead of saying "No" when he asked me, I allowed myself to believe that everything was grand, when really I was pushing myself into a wall.
It's like as if all of my knowledge on assertiveness has evaporated. Come back! :(
