How would you treat others people who are rude to you?

You will always find yourself among people who are rude or even hostile to you.They are everywhere.They are intolerably proud of their position,physical strength or money.I have come across many of them and I tried to be as polite to them as I could be,but they were too recalcitrant to change.Finally I had to change myself.I made it a point to maintain a distance from them.This I did not because I was less strong or less resourceful than or afraid of them,but because I did not want to get into an unnecessary brawl and waste my time.I distanced myself from them.This worked and I got rid of them. Such people are actually positioned at heights they don't deserve.

You are right that you should treat your subordinates with respect in order to respect you too as their immediate supervisor. Maybe the one you are talking did not respect her subordinates since they did not respect her. Remeber what you said that she is just one week rom her promotion but she really acts like that. On the other hand, you mentioned that her subbordinates are her friends, maybe this is one of the reason why they did not follow her because they treat her as still their friends at their level and not as their immediate supervisor. Good day!

Life is to short, so I would suggest just being nice and avoid the person when you can at work. Do your work and don't worry about this person. I know its easier said then done.

If they can not do the right thing, at least you are trying to make good and treat everybody fairly. Just remember there is always a harvest time.

For my experience, there is a schoolmate who hates me a lot but the fact is I never met him before. The reason why he hates me is because I look ugly in his eyes. Even though he always says some bad bad thing to my friends or classmates, I never treat him badly. I am still myself, no matter what others done, all you need to do is be yourself. I think you should be open mind, whatever other done or said, all you need to do is be patient and gentle. After all, luck will come to you.

such type of people are proud of themselves. but one should not be proud, or else one day you will be put to disgrace. Don't bother about them ..just ignore the people who are rude to you cos time will pay them..all heaven and hell are both here.. I would like to share an intant in my life, one day when i went back home during Uni break, it was school day for primary and secondary school. my mum was a kindergarten teacher then and she comes home at 1pm. me and my granny had come back from town and just went to my aunt's place which is on the way to my house. because we were sitting down on the floor, when i got up little tummy of mine showed up. and we were all ladies there. i dress fine, no sleevless and no mini and tummy covered. other neighbor aunty was also there, she saw that little part of my tummy showed while i got up to go home with my granny cos it was time for my mum to come back from work. My aunt started saying, ohhhh see your tummy showing, you dont have manners, this is what you must be doing in the city.. all that... I was very depressed..her words had hurt me, i had not done anything wrong. I told my mum and she said just ignore her, you know you are right, dont bother wat she says, I God is watching, that same day her daughter ran away with some boy, and she started crying out out. we went to help, my bro helped them find her daughter. Am writing here and tears have filled my eyes..god is their to do the justice to those who are rude to you.

there are people who will treat you that way because they are insecure. it's not that they think that they are better. i have deal with people like this but then again i did try very hard to be civil. in the end i quit my job because i can't take it any more.

hi bluerain, I talked to our client once I asked him what position you have here he told me position is just a ranking but for me everyone is just the same what matters is you do your work and you always stay your feet on the ground I was amazed when he told me this then later on I found out he is a manager but he doesn't look like one, he don't act like one it seems he is just simple man who works. You can rarely encounter this kind of person some people get blinded by their success and this is so sad. Just be broad minded and think how lucky you are that you are able to understand such person. happy mylotting
