If you will work in an organization, that place is like a jungle, there's prey and the predators. I consider predators were the annoying, mean, arrogant, self-centered people whose main job is pull down good people and most of the time they cant live without making a bully out of anything to you.
How will you handle this kind of colleague? (Based on your experience and not from books)

I have been with people like that. And when that happens, I put on my royal mask and answer them in an elegant and precise language with a dash of patronizing accent even if they are my bosses. Some sentences help. Like feigning you didn´t hear them the firt time. Noone can repeat the bully part exactly the same way
. Something like: excuse me for a moment, I was too concentrated in ... Will you repeat what you said, plaese. A sweet smile to go with it completes the picture

Take care!

Few people are born with wisdom. Unfortunatly to most of us, wisdom is acquired with eyeglasses and wrinkles. But I hate so much arrogant people that bully others that can´t answer back that I have developed a whole battery of weapons. I used the last one with a very mean customer at the super who was bullying the butcher because he was (at the same time) talking about Christmas to another butcher. As it was the day before Christmas and she was well attended, I thought she had no right. So I gave her a very loud and dignified piece of my mind. 
I loved to see her embarrased.
