This video presumes most people are reasonable and rational. I’ve been mercilessly bullied by superiors both in graduate school and in a work environment. Knowing the reasons doesn’t change anything. couldn’t run cause there was everything to lose. Couldn’t take a stand cause that would be a death sentence. Couldn’t change their ‘tude because bullying behavior is very ingrained. Couldn’t change my attitude cause no one can ever reframe abuse as a positive thing.
Thanks for your time and effort in doing this.
Correct my frind, like the old saying goes, if you dont make a plan before you do something, then your plan is to fail. I hope this helps too.
Pretty good advice. After nine years of working for a very difficult boss, I finally tried the “run” strategy (quitting the job), and it was the best decision I could have made. I had been trying the other three strategies, but none of them worked. I discovered that if I took a stand, she would find a way to make me pay. Man, I still have nightmares about her a year and a half later.
really practical suggestions. thanks
The presentation is simple yet very practicle and helpful when one gives himself a 10 seconds of thinking before acting

I like this video. A few years ago I ran into two bullies at the same place of employment. The more I tried to make friends with them, the more they bullied.
Then I suddenly realized that the reason they were bullying was because they “enjoyed” having people sweat to make friends with them.
Eventually I learned to totally ignore them and to STOP all efforts to make friends with them. They appeared to actually be quite upset by this and the whole game stopped.
No its not presuming anything. It presents you the four elementary strategies. There are no other. This is it.
A death sentence? Get a grip man.
I’ve had quite a bad position in my previous job. Had to leave (run) Best decision ever.
how do you answer that ? well , yes, most people are reasonable and rational as long as it is in their favor. what does that mean? best to keep to yourself and let the assholes be assholes. when you can’t understand it , and you can’t run away from it, fuck it , you’ll get so stressed you might wanna consider between your sanity and your job
good video
thanks a lot indeed
I could only listen to this for about a minute, his accent killed me
exactly. Well said simple solutions are for simple problems. The advice here is good when it fits.
Simple, practical and useful. Helped me pick a few pointers on when to confront and when NOT to confront. Thanks.
Really nice sort of advices. Thank you!
Very thoughtfully done…now I know..I need to give a thought and plan before actually reacting to the difficult guy
As much as I just want to beat the shit out of this one guy at work, I’ll get fired, this guy from now on will not get under my skin, I have had to deal with faggot ass mother fuckers before, they have got to me, but not this time.
