@LoganARobison If a customer tells the bank that they did not authorise the transaction and had lost their debit/credit card,or someone stole it(fraudulent charge),there is no way for you to win that dispute. They’ll win every single time. Many customers use this to exploit banking systems.

@BilalYasirBjr @Zahraan___ @SohailAfridiISF @UNHumanRights This procedure is followed by almost all countries. Illegal immigrants usually get arrested and deported back to their countries. In detention, even their hands are cuffed with a tracker so that they might not run away. Pakistan Government gave them more than 5 years to leave.

HOW TO NEVER GET ANGRY! 🤯
(Proven Psychological and Philosophical Techniques) 👇

[A stoic’s feed @astoicsfeed]

5. FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS
Picture the consequences of following anger versus following reason and exercising virtues such as moderation.
('If I let my anger guide me then I'll probably just yell at her and get into another argument, and things will get a lot worse over time until we're not speaking anymore. If I wait until l've calmed down and then try to listen patiently, though, it might be difficult at first but it will probably start to work better with practice, and once she's calmed down maybe she ll begin listening to my perspective.'')

4. MODELING VIRTUE
Ask yourself what a wise person such as Socrates or Zeno would do. What virtues might help you to respond wisely? In your case, it might be easier to think of a role model you're more familiar with, like Marcus Aurelius or someone you've encountered in your own life.

3. POSTPONEMENT
Wait until your feelings of anger have naturally abated before you decide how to respond to the situation. Take a breath, walk away, and come back to it a few hours later. If you still feel like you need to do something, then calmly decide upon the best response;
otherwise, just let it go and forget about it.

2. COGNITIVE DISTANCING
Remind yourself that the events themselves don't make you angry, but rather your judgments about them cause the passion. (1 notice that 1 am telling myself How dare she say that,' and it's that way of looking at things that's causing me to feel angry.")

1. SELF-MONITORING
Spot early warming signs of anger, to nip it in the bud before it escalates. for example, you might notice that your voice begins to change, or thar you trown or your muscles tense, when you're beginning to grow angry. or you may think of somcone's actions as unjust or in violation of a personal rule.
"How dare she say that to me!")
