i don't know what satisfaction rude people can have after they speak harsh words and lambast a person in front of many people. i know a man like that who was once like a humble, low profile man then when promoted to our higher position was transformed to an arrogant, rude man. to think that he doesn't own yet his cars and house, he is already acting like that. he would say unfriendly remarks without even thinking of how other the person feel. does fame and money got into his head? i really don't know because that man doesn't know now the words please and sorry.

Some things can just turn lambs into wolves but mostly, some wolves haves just been disguising as lambs waiting for the right moment to attack and devour every weak sheep it can. I feel sorry for this people, of course there is hatred and disgust, but mostly just sorry, because in their eyes they are gods but where will they be when they will be trampled by those who they persecuted?

People are rude for many reasons: badly raised, shout at others so nobody shouts at you, pick at others so nobody picks at you, a way to get what you want (manipulate/threaten people), a way to express you are dominate or feel better like others, loving to humilate other people, feeling unhappy (so others have to feel the same), feeling lonesome, etc etc.

he used to be a low profile person but i think from the very beginning he has some insecurities inside him that he is just showing now. maybe he is thinking becasue he got position, people will respect him. i would rather gain respect out of love than respect out of fear. and what, after he turn his back people would imitate and criticize him. thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Things are not allways what it seems. So before we judge him, I think it's proper and probably the best to let him know about this. We don't know his story aside from the things that you can see. Giving him this reality check will probably be a good intervention to do for now :)

There are rude people in this world because base on the situation you have given, they still aim or want something in life even if they are already successful. Although there are also other people who are still good, rude people still exists for special reasons.

some people really change when they experienced good things in life, they became boastful and the worst is they lost respect to other people too. Usually, this kind of behavior showed up when they believe that they are way above to anyone and that they have authority to say anything they like cause they believe they are richer than anybody else. I believe some good things wont last if you don't have a heart. Just stay away from that kind of person so your day will not be ruined.

I have been around people like this who were seemingly nice prior to getting a big promotion, or moving into a luxury home, or buying a new car, making some sort of accomplishment to be better than you are.
I don't know why people can be so rude, maybe their upbringing never really taught to be polite? Maybe once they feel inferior to you they act the part.
It is cruel to speak harshly to anyone or lambast a person regardles if people are around or not.
i would get that person out of my life and quick.

I think these rude people act that way to cover up their insecurities in life. Their high and haughty attitude makes them feel superior to other people. And I think money can really bring this out on some people. They probably have some sort of self-pity before getting that money or promotion, maybe thinking that the world was harsh to them, and when they did get it, they feel that it's payback time.

Truthfully it would be a vicious, vile cycle to say the very least. There are just going to be many rude people in the world, that have tried to be the better person. At another time. But they are just going to get stomped on and tossed right over to the side immediately. It is a behavior that is many times learned but the wrong lesson is learned from it.
Instead of the lesson of, “people might be rude but I should not let it get to me and just try and hopefully set a better example” being learned, people say “well since everything else is rude, then screw you all, I’m going to be just as rude as all of you people as well.” It is a wrong sentiment to have, but it is one that is commonly held.

You can judge them according to what they do but if you are in their place, how sure are you that you wont do the same as they did? What a person does depends on the range of actions he or she is capable of doing and due to the limitations they may have, it doesn't get any better. It would be akin to asking why a stone do not bleed or why pigs can't fly. Asking why question gains you nothing if the reason is the situation just can't be helped.

i agree, those people who think they are up will go down as fast as he went up. i am a very patient person but hearing all his rudeness makes me feel bad to the extent of i am getting depressed. i hope he will wake up to the reality that life is an echo and whatever he gives, life will give it back to him.

To answer your title question, there are rude people around us to make us more patient and loving. They just don't know what they are doing and how they hurt people, but we must be thankful enough that we are not like them. This means that we are more mature than them.
