Episode 515: When to say Enough is Enough

[00:00:01] The pod breed network is strictly for the small podcasts that are up and coming in the vast world of podcasting.

[00:00:09] Pod breed is made up of many diverse podcasts, coming together to achieve the same goal of being the best

[00:00:16] of the day.

[00:00:18] I don't know how long this episode will be because it's not scripted, it's more of a conversation.

[00:01:03] I had with a coworker and it just gave me an idea to do an episode.

[00:01:13] So just bear with me.

[00:01:18] I was talking to someone who had a massage, he was getting a reflexology massage dealing

[00:01:22] with the feet and a side from the spot, so giving him red flags.

[00:01:30] The masseuse wasn't doing a good job and it was 4 an hour and he wanted them to stop.

[00:01:37] Only 30 minutes and they told them we couldn't do it as well.

[00:01:41] Just have her stop at the 30.

[00:01:43] He didn't want to be rude and teller that he wasn't doing a good job but he just couldn't

[00:01:49] do her whole hour.

[00:01:50] I never heard of anyone doing that before, but I actually admired him for doing so.

[00:01:55] And that just made me think why don't we do that more often?

[00:02:02] How often do we go through something and just decide you know what my knife is enough?

[00:02:12] Welcome to Dre's Point of View. I am your host, Australia.

[00:02:17] And I would love if you would follow the show at Dre's Point of View.

[00:02:24] On IG Pinterest threads and Facebook as well as Dre a point and X and spill.

[00:02:32] I can't tell you how many procedures I've gone through where I just said nothing.

[00:02:42] It's already paid for. So I'm just going to go through with it.

[00:02:47] Now as far as massage is go, I've had my share like I stated in the past.

[00:02:52] I am a member of a spa.

[00:02:56] So for the most part, I've gotten pretty good messages.

[00:03:03] I haven't, I have yet to stop one.

[00:03:08] But I can't say that so much for nail salons, ladies, how often do you go to a spot?

[00:03:18] And then because I read about it often, I know what happens more often than it should.

[00:03:22] Where you go to get your nails done and you're not pleased with it.

[00:03:26] But you're sitting right there looking at it.

[00:03:28] You have every opportunity to just say stop, you know, I'm money back.

[00:03:32] But you didn't actually a friend of mine went to a spa to get her nails done.

[00:03:39] And she actually cut her. She grew blood and she continued to go through with the procedure.

[00:03:49] I definitely would not have.

[00:03:52] And hairdressers, especially.

[00:03:56] How often is it that you are doing your hair and see their sleep with it too?

[00:04:03] They will keep your back to the mirror until they're done.

[00:04:07] And then turn you around and look at it.

[00:04:09] But at that point, it pretty much is too late.

[00:04:14] But just for anything.

[00:04:17] Why don't we speak up more?

[00:04:20] And just say, you know what, I need you to stop.

[00:04:23] I'm going to need part of my money back.

[00:04:26] And is it out of fear?

[00:04:33] People pleasing?

[00:04:34] I'm sure that's part of it.

[00:04:36] We don't want to hurt that person's feelings.

[00:04:38] You know, they're there to do a job or they're there to get a service and still.

[00:04:43] Then you go home upset telling everyone about it.

[00:04:50] And chances are, you may go back again.

[00:04:53] That's the thing.

[00:04:54] Now see with me if I'm unhappy after a while, I'll just stop going.

[00:05:00] I won't have them stop.

[00:05:05] So what would it take to do what my coworker did?

[00:05:10] I didn't tell him that that I admired him for stopping it.

[00:05:17] But like myself, he's used to getting massage.

[00:05:20] A good masseuse knows that point to hit.

[00:05:22] So there's and he was, he said she was this awful.

[00:05:27] She didn't really, it was painful.

[00:05:31] And yeah, he just couldn't go through an hour.

[00:05:33] And our really is a long time on your feet.

[00:05:35] I mean, I could see if you were getting a full body and you just tell him to apply more pressure

[00:05:39] or what have you.

[00:05:40] And that's the thing too, I guess he could have told her, you know, could you use less pressure

[00:05:45] or do such a such, but instead he just cut it short.

[00:05:49] And they actually refunded part of his money too.

[00:05:56] But yeah, it's just something that was on my mind just to random thought that I thought

[00:06:03] I made a good conversation.

[00:06:07] When do you say enough is enough?

[00:06:09] And I guess it would apply to relationships and friendships too.

[00:06:13] A lot of times we let them, we stay in a pass or expiration date.

[00:06:19] And we don't see anything about it.

[00:06:21] We just continue like the situation ship.

[00:06:25] We just continue to endure it just to say we have someone.

[00:06:29] And we don't speak our minds because we're adults.

[00:06:32] I mean, as kids, of course.

[00:06:36] You can't say anything.

[00:06:38] But as adults, we have free will.

[00:06:43] Why wouldn't we?

[00:06:45] Just something to think about.
