Even though it is highly tempting to lose your temper and yell insults at a workplace bully, don't do it. You would be falling into a trap from which you may never recover. Nevertheless, you may need to vent some anger and frustration. Couple of exercises that can be practiced in the confines of your own home when you are alone and not within earshot of anyone else.
Short version to vent at a bully:
You're a backstabbing, condescending, conniving, manipulative son-of-a-bitch!
Long version to vent at a bully:
You're an abusive, backstabbing, blame-shifting, condescending, conniving, controlling, deceiving, double-crossing, egotistical, evasive, fault-finding, hateful, hypocritical, irrational, irritating, judgemental, lying, manipulative, nitpicking, paranoid, pretentious, pushy, sadistic, sarcastic, self-important, self-righteous, sneaky, two-faced, underhanded, unreasonable son-of-a-bitch!
It would also be useful, to get some professional Anger Management too. I know it sounds strange, for the victim to have to do this. But bullies often count on their victim loosing their temper. Because it gives them a chance to claim that they're the victim, not you. If you have help to control your anger, 'till it's all sorted out. Then their defence never materialises.
Got it in one, True Blue.It is always the real slackers and chancers who Management won't stand up to, whilst taking their frustrations out on the good workers.Say no more.
Handy tip no. one to defuse Angry Manager who is trying to bring you down on shop floor----pretend you didn't hear the first time, smile and ask them to repeat! It works!!i do have a SLIGHT hearing problem, which I bring into play when needs be, normally, if you ask therm politely to repeat, theit gas has gone, and you get a mumnled 'speak to you later'
If you are talking to me. please excuse my spelling. I will give you handy tip no. 2 tomorrow,treid and tested by
