Answer 1

I had an experience where i had to wear a black jeans at work which i did but my boss kept telling me that it wasn’t black and it seems to be blue. She wanted me to change those pants but I clearly wore black jeans. But to them due to some reasons it looked blue. I kept on telling and didn’t change my pants.

Answer 2

I have an experience with someone who made an argument that did not made sense. She claimed that the Earth was flat, and I could not idly stand by to accept that claim. My problem with this argument was that she was in my Physics class, where we use the common fact that the Earth was a globe to support our thesis statement. I first stated my explanations on proving how the Earth was not flat but, instead, spherical. I used the Earth’s gravitational pull and the mechanics of an orbit to explain. However, she still refused to believe me. In the end, I turned a blind eye and respected her opinions. I also requested my professor for a change in my partner. Fortunately, he agreed!
