Good day, my name is Xindu. After reviewing the question, I would like to express my understanding of your emotions.
In some cases, the individual providing the service may have made an error.
I'm unclear on the context of the conversation. If the other person simply answered your question descriptively and did not attack you, it seems he was expressing his opinion. He believed you only wanted a bun and had forgotten about the set meal you had ordered.
However, your description indicates that you were angry. I recommend that you review this situation. Please reflect on what you were thinking at the time. What caused your emotional response?
From your description, it appears that you have elevated his words or this incident to a higher level. He is bullying you, and you are hesitant to fight back or argue. This has caused you to feel aggrieved. It would be beneficial to consider what the other person's reaction in this incident means to you. Have there been similar situations in the past?
You will gain insight into the information you selectively pay attention to. How do you define and perceive external information, or to put it more directly, how do you interpret this information? If it is other colleagues you are familiar with, do they have different interpretations? How would they handle it?
You have indicated that you would like to learn how to deal with these issues in the future.
First, identify comparable scenarios in which other individuals or literature have proposed solutions that align with your preferences. Then, construct a mental representation of the situation. This entails envisioning various potential outcomes with different individuals and circumstances. Additionally, consider how you would respond in each scenario, including your facial expressions, emotions, spoken words, and actions. Repeat this visualization process until it becomes a routine practice. This approach can effectively alter your emotional state and establish an automated response mode. However, it necessitates a sustained commitment over an extended period. I hope this information is beneficial to you. Best regards,

I can totally relate to feeling frustrated in that situation. It's really annoying when there's a miscommunication and the other person doesn't seem to want to clarify things. I should have just asked him what he meant by that comment. Maybe he was indeed talking about himself, but at the moment, I felt too intimidated to say anything.
That's such a bizarre experience! The staff member seemed to misunderstand me completely. It's true, ordering a set meal usually comes with options, and it's strange that only a steamed bun was given. Next time, I will definitely speak up right away to prevent this kind of misunderstanding from happening again.
Oh my, that guy really threw me off! Saying something vague like "not being clearheaded." I wish I had the courage to ask if he was referring to himself or to me. I guess I'll take a deep breath and address these issues more directly next time. It's important not to let those moments slide.
It's so disheartening when you pay for one thing and get something entirely different. I wonder if he was having an off day. In hindsight, I should have clarified his mumbling about not being clearheaded. I need to remind myself that it's okay to stand up for myself and ask for what I paid for.
