Today, I worked as a kind of bouncer. One of the other bouncers did not show up until 2 hours in and when I brought that up, he said "as far as you're concerned, I was here the whole night." I thought, okay, but he was sitting in my chair and I wanted to sit down. So I asked him to let me sit down and when he said no, I brought up the fact that I was covering for him so he should at least do that for me. He gets angry that I would even think of holding that over him, even though I simply wanted to sit down. I put my hand on his shoulder and ask him to please let me sit down and so he continues to get angry, yelling at me to get my hands off him. And then switches the topic to me being impolite and socially unaware and gaslighting me by saying that I didn't ask him to please let me sit down even though I did. And I realized that I was rude to put my hands on him, so I said sorry and then he said it was too late and sur me down by giving me the silent treatment. Overall, he did not want to vacate the seat anyways, so he controlled the frame and placed the blame on my actions to rationalize him not letting me sit down. I learned an example of real life frame control and how he was able to manipulate me into backing down.
Tl; Dr guy does frame control on me and I get another example of how feel relevant TRP is and how beta I am right now.
