don’t weaken yourself
for someone
with something to prove,
they’ll jump
to make an example out of you,
no matter the record,
no matter the truth
their ego
will always
outweigh you

Wise!
Truth. Have a care in getting too close lest you risk being impaled upon their prickly porcupine spiky spears.
A friend just came to me with a terrible story of bullying by a man at her work. I tried to tell her just this.
Tell her not to stand for it!
I most certainly did and she is not going to but can you believe her supervisors told her she should. Completely unacceptable.
I believe it. Too many places like to sweep those things under the rug, not do anything about it until someone gets hurt. Good for her for standing up for herself
Yes I was so glad she did. Yes they wont sack him as he brings in the profits they need. Its a major airline I wont name here in Australia. I know this kind of thing goes on all the time in corporate culture. And its affects so many,
You hit that right on the head girl! So very true! Words of wisdom….I like it!
Thank you 😀
You just delivered the message short and simple. 👌
Realistic truth. Sadly to say. Yes, we must not stand by and continue to be timid.
Wise words, that is so true.
