"After extensive study of the phenomenon of "work place bullying and mobbing" I have learned that there are ways to minimize demanding, rude behaviors of managers. There are two general types of demanding, rude managers that you're likely to come across and they need to be dealt with differently."
Thank you so much for your insightful article. Having just worked for the President of a company who was a bully, your words about "true" bullies, resonated and truly made me know that I am not alone.

I have to say, it took me a while, maybe ten years of working, to figure out what I really wanted: a) to work part-time not full-time, even if it means less income bc it's all I can do with my stress levels, and b) find good people to work with. Not perfect people, but people whose idiosyncracies I can stand.
Last year, I was busy complaining on these boards about the hell I was in with my boss. I saved up enough money, then quit. It was scary quitting without another job ahead of me. I had to contract for awhile with no steady income but a little here and a little there. Then with my good luck and help from God, one of those contract people needed a permanent employee - that was me! I was hired about seven months after I quit. It was a hard period to get through, but within a year, it's been a nice change. I can look back at where I was before and I just hated it. I hated the person I worked for. Now, my good boss seems even better knowing where I've been. It takes courage to walk away but I believe if you put yourself financially in a position to do it, it's the best thing to leave.
