I’ve been training for a few weeks at a new job. My trainer has been passive aggressive/ lazy bish that literally doesn’t want to teach me anything. Culturally I’m taught that I should give a gift at the end of a teacher/student relationship. But my ego or wtvr you call it doesn’t want to. Would you in this situation?

Yes, I would but I would give as I received if you get my meaning.

Your comment clicked with me the most and makes more sense than the BS I’ve been taught culturally since childhood.

I know sometimes I feel like I’ve been brain fucked by my parents since childhood. All this BS about respecting elders and teachers. I don’t think people who grew up normally would understand the power of brain washing.

Why would you gift anyone who wants to see you fail.

If it's NOT from the heart, why do it?

But if you're going to do it, that book suggested above should be a perfect match lol
