While dishwasher shopping, h presented a perfect opportunity for me to practice assertiveness, I had asked a question of the salesman and h made a very condescending remark to me about it. So, I looked at him and said calmly "Please don't ever speak to me that way again."

It felt pretty darn good, and I felt myself standing a little bit straighter as a result. The surge of self-respect I also felt was a bit of a surprise.

And, the dishwasher I wanted was actually $50 less than the price advertised online, so that was a nice surprise as well.
