I'm very lucky that I've only run into 2 people on the community boards that are bullies. But I get the sense that they don't know. It reminds me of the bullies at work who feel so victimized all the time by honest people. They could convince God himself that they are are victims. Why does this happen and why do they do it in public and think they'll get so much support (hint: sometimes they do!).

Most people who get enjoyment from putting others down are not super happy about things themselves. Being mean to people for no reason is not healthy, well adjusted behavior.

I have a sister that is and always will be a bully. In this particular situation. I have found that this particular individual is wired wrong.
As I am wired with love and empathy. She is wired with hate and jealousy.
I can only imagine that her outlook on life is being full of jealousy, hate, and rage.
I have observed that she feels that this is her way of getting forced attention. ( The loudest one in the room is right syndrome)
This gives her forced acceptance to her empty and deeply confused state of being.
While the rest of us are pleasant, happy and acceptance of each other.
She is scared and frightened. Which I undoubtedly feel this to be her motivation to scream even louder.
I try to be pleasant and understanding. ( smiles and knods). I avoid her abuse by not participating in her rederick.
. It is my way of keeping my peace. And my way of letting her run hers.

NFW- I just had a good laugh. Earlier today I was on a video conference call reviewing a Private Label Agreement template with a larger company who wishes to brand label products we develop and manufacture. We came to a very one-sided provision and my sales VP stated “for this one, how can we just say ‘hell no’ ...nicely?” The other person on the call said we can replace the wording with just NFW (no f@$* way) and I said “I will have to add that to the defined terms section so it’s clear”

I’ve been depressed for years now and this past week I lost a dog I’ve had for 15 years; he was one of the only bright spots in my life and I’ve just found it so hard to focus or motivate myself on anything after this. I genuinely feel like I’m at rock bottom, Idk if I’m crazy to feel that way bc of a dog but I used to be able to control this and put up a front but now my depression and anxiety are starting to leak into my work conversations completely unintentionally, I wish this would stop :(
