if you worked with someone who was constantly knocking you down and..

when I have situations like this I don't even have to pick up the phone to ask my mothers opinion because I already know what she will say and in my head I hear her loud and clear, lol. She'd say "Pray for them". I am like you, I probably would just take it and not say anything. but then again when I have taken so much that I just cant handle anymore I might really explode. which is why it isn't always good to hold that all in. because once you hold it in for so long when you finally do say something it might not be so good lol. I would kindly just let them know that what their saying, or however their acting toward you, you don't like it and would appreciate it if they stop. usually when you let someone know how their behaviour makes you feel, they will stop. if they don't them maybe you should go to a supervisor or boss and complain. it just depends on how severe the case is. no one deserves to go to work and be treated badly. I am a firm believer in treating people as you want to be treated. and everyone no matter who they are deserves respect. good luck and I hope everything gets better for you. :)

I would say something , I dont let anyone talk down to me and I think anyone that know me can tell . I happen to have never work for anyone like you describe though lol . I cant work if I am miserable so I think you should say something .

been there, done that. Tried to ignore it...but the person just got worse..ended up going out on stress leave because it got so bad. I hate people like that. And this one was a "church" woman so to speak. She would do very subtle things as to not let anyone else know she was tormenting me. I really dislike her to this day although I no longer work there....I still cringe everytime I run into her at the store. At least now I am not forced to be nice...I can actually show her that NO I do NOT like her and NO I do not have to speak to her!!!

I have felt that my husband have been the main source of my unhappiness for a long time. He just keeps on discouraging me with all the things that I do. It has really made me feel bad and it is hard to be in this situation wherein you need to be with the family and take care of the children but has to suffer with all those negative things. He has mellowed down a bit, but still there are times that I feel that he treats me as if I were a different person.

I would sometimes it's indeed because i'm a little sensitive but sometimes it is not my fault and we meet mean people.Just be you and confident,i think it depends on whether you are trying to do against them.Be real you and let them alone.Good luck my friend.

I have had this happen to me, where this person was putting me down, in front of my face,I speak top the person when I see her, but I don't have anything personally to do with her, I don't feel comfortable around her, so I just keep my distance.
