I Just Because I'm Quiet Doesn't Mean I'm Stupid

I agree with this statement 100%. I've had people who would talk to me or treat me like I was stupid and disrespect me in the past. Just because we're silent doesn't mean we don't know what's going on around us or that we were born yesterday. Believe it or not, we hear and see everything. We're like sneaky ninjas.

I get this all the time from my colleagues at work. Especially during staff meetings.
Something will come up on the agenda and it's ALWAYS those with an opinion or (more likely) a preference that ensure they get their voices heard !
I tend to stay quiet if I think the subject irrelevant to my work.
But every so often one of my colleagues will try and draw me into some daft debate. Especially if they're losing the argument.
At which point I let them have it with both barrels !

@Picklebobble2 Sorry to hear and thanks for sharing. I like the last part when you said you let them have it with both barrels. LOL

@SW-User "Speak your truth quietly and calmly. And listen to others.
Even the dull and ignorant. For they too have their story.

@blendednotshaken The wiser a man is, the less talkative he will be.
