It puts into words exactly what I am experiencing at my current job. It's very difficult to have any sense of motivation and I've spent far too many hours worrying about these incidents. It's absolutely NOT healthy! In the "olden" days, we would call these people "bullies." I love this article! It puts into words exactly what I am experiencing at my current job.

I am seeing a slight change, but we have a long way to go. I am hopeful this "Boomers Group" will help with insite and suggestions. I enjoyed the article about how to change your resume to go forward instead of scaring the potential employer with all your "over-qualified" experience.
