Bullies @ Work

Who doesn’t love this scene from AMC’s Mad Men (Season 1, Episode 9, “Shoot”) when a beleaguered Betty Draper grabs the kids’ BBgun and takes aim at the neighbor’s pigeons? 

Betty is not alone in her frustration.  In a down economy, bullies come out of the woodwork, sad to say.  The conversations and concerns escalate.

If it is happening to you, there is a very helpful website and resource, courtesy of the Workplace Bullying Institute.  Scope it out.
