[QUOTE="Ziparoo, post: 962574, member: 41103"] Thanks guys for your input.Its been cathartic reading your posts. I guess when you join management you join a fraternity of sorts.Theres a way to behave and act thats expected of you. Trust me,if your seen as being "too nice" as a manager,you will be pulled aside and "retrained". Theres also a psychological reason why managers become bully's. In the classic Stanford prison experiment that looked at the impact on ordinary people who became either prison guards or prisoners. After only six days in this mock prison set up,the "guards became sadistic and abusive towards the "prisoner". And the participents who played the part of prisoners became passive and accepted the psychological abuse of the guards. It basically showed a degeneration and breakdown of the established rules and morals dictating exactly how people should behave towards each other. This should all sound familiar to you in your work enviroment. Power does awfull things to people. Next time you see a courier promoted to senoir courier or manager just study Him or Her closely. Its fascinating to see them slowly change into the role of "boss". [/QUOTE]
