How do you deal or handle Rude or Disrespectful people?

Just wondering, I think we all agree we’ve probably been bullied or maybe disrespected by a person at some point in our lives? How do you usually deal with or handle people who are just 100% Flat out rude, disrespectful and mean? Would you maybe like hold a long grudge with this person and stay mad at them no matter what? Or maybe just ignore it and mind your own business and worry about your own problems and say I don’t need haters in my life?

 

I use reverse Psychology myself.

 

Thanks for your feedback! Yeah, if it gets more responses from moving it, I’m 100% for that! Yeah, the problem with the rude/disrespect thing is it’s like when I’m at work? My Manager and co workers seem to all be that way? Just rude and disrespectful people? They won’t acknowledge me for anything good I do for the store? They always try and point out bad stuff and what I’m doing wrong there? Negative people, I swear!

 

You need the DILLIGAF thread. X

 

Ohhh kill them with kindness!?

 

I know it hard to ignore, but don't let them know it gets under your skin!

 

Sure, I’ll take your advice! As far as I know, they do want me to keep coming back into work so I don’t think they plan on just straight up letting me go? I’ve been with this same company for like 7 years now? I’m pretty much like Veteran and been there longer than the rest of them have? But I’m not like “in charge” of the store, that’s the manager? So it’s his call whether I keep working there or not I suppose?

 

No offence and I'm not being rude... If "everybody" is criticizing everything you do maybe it's not them. Are you doing your work properly and up to your capability? If you are, then, yeah... you got a bunch of assholes there. If you have room to improve in your quality of work, then it's not necessarily them that is the problem.

 

It sounds like what my husband went through before he was pushed into retirement, the just made him miserable until he wanted to quit ( I'm sure there's more to it) but in that case they could then replace him with someone who worked for less

 

as long as they're not in my face, they're welcome to their own living hells and i have no wish to be them.
when they're not around, i'm able to feel sorry for them.

dealing? i try to avoid any place i might encounter them. i find most of my amusements at home. though of course i go to stores and ride public transportation to get there.
i know i could cocoon myself even more, if i had the cash flow to do so, just don't know how i could do that and be able to do so at the same time.

this however has the unfortunate side effect, that i no longer know anyone very well in real life.

 

I don't find people to be rude to me, so I don't see that as a problem. I'm sure that it has happened--but I just don't remember it.

 

That’s the best response. It really irritates them.

 

I like eye contact for that. Why? Well, it introduces a common expectation into the non-verbal vernacular.

Not threatening, no... not like that. But introducing... the expectation.

In customer service (something many working people are at least vaguely familiar with) we have a tradition of excellence, professional courtesy, and most importantly appropriate non-verbal communication.

They figure it out; if not like right away then when they go home.

 

I don't. I don't take shit from people. Society has become real disrespectful towards one another. It's all across ALL ages.

 

i wish i could say they don't annoy me, but they do.
i wish i could say i know an absolutely reliable way to forestall them, but i don't.

i do know enough to not expect everyone to be considerate,
so its not entirely the end of the world that such people exist,
but why they want to live in the kind of world they create by being that way,
is beyond me.

obviously they think they are getting something out of it,
when all they are really doing is shaming themselves,
and they really really don't need to.

all i can do is tell people they don't need to keep shaming themselves.
