3. Poor Treatment

Page 16: How to Recognize When You've Been Power Played

POOR TREATMENT

This is a general sign, but you find yourself taking onwork responsibilities that you really shouldn't have to.

You receive poor treatment from service providers,government personnel, shop keepers, and others, and

you feel "bad" about complaining. Or, you allow others inyour life to treat you unfairly.

If this happens frequently, you are probably being powerplayed in some way by the relevant person.
