[quote=Anonymous]Yes. I worked for someone who, no shit, was a textbook psychopath. We did much better than you did though - one of the things our boss was good at was hiring truly good people. So each time he did, one of us would take the new person aside and say "It's not you; it's him. WE are all very, VERY direct. Do NOT believe anything he says to you about us. If any of us have a problem, we speak to each other directly. We back each other, and we assume the best of each other. Ok?" And it really worked. So when we left the firm and went somewhere new, it was just "Oh yeahhhhh, THIS is how it's supposed to be! I remember this type of environment!" Also, this is kind of an aside, but I find in general that if I treat people as if of COURSE they are mature and professional, they rise close to that occasion. It helps them curb their immaturity, passive-aggressiveness, etc. [/quote]
