Do you stand up for yourself? Share your stories.

I never stand up for myself. The first time I ever really stood up for myself was when a guy was being a dick. The manager told me to stand up for myself instead of standing up to the guy because standing up to the guy would get me in troublr. I shut my mouth and let him do whatever he wanted to do. I'm allways scared now. The manager also said I shouldn't be there because I'm so quiet. What are your stories?
