Bullies

   Why some people are so mean? It is a question for which I have no answer. Bullies are everywhere...I just avoid them!

I don't like bullies. I don't like people treating other people bad. It really does affect peoples self esteem and confidence.

I saw a pin on pinterest and yes it has a bad word in it but it is SO true.  "What does not kill you F**ks you up mentally".    No matter how hard you try to not let things bother you whether most will admit it or not it does bother them.  I have actually seen cashiers standing there in tears because of a customer berating them and management refusing to do anything.  And then the customer getting satisfaction out of being able to upset the cashier.  Or get them in trouble by telling lies.  What possible satisfaction could you get out of getting someone in trouble or even fired?  Someone you do not know?  Someone that has done nothing to you?  I have got til lately when I get receipts and they have a survey on the bottom I always if possible mention the cashier's name and state they were friendly, nice, helpful, whatever.  Because most people are.

Seems like most people are just looking for something to complain about.

Well I can contradict myself here because on the one hand, I have a zero tolerance for bullying, but on the other hand I think it would be appropriate for a bully to by bullied to know what it feels like, which lets face it, is never good.
