[quote=Anonymous]For me, it's proven useful to learn that it's THEM, not me, separate myself mentally/emotionally from the bad behaviors, and then examine their behavior and motivations. Learning about childhood development issues has really opened up my understanding of "adult" behavior patterns. Once I "figure them out" they are easier to deal with - you can placate their fears, give them what they want, etc. and not trigger the bad behavior. I think this is called playing the game, but I will admit that I worry that I've been sucked into a sick game. I have the idea that many workplaces are similar to this in some degree, especially as you rise up. But maybe there are healthy ones too? I have never found HR or anyone else to be useful in the game. Commiserating with colleagues doesn't work either. You should "check" the behavior with colleagues - to make sure you are not the only one seeing it. [/quote]
