Have you ever worked with a person so nasty that you hated going to work? It’s sad, but some people can spoil everything.

In an ideal world, people would treat others with respect, patience, and kindness. I think that’s what we’re meant to do as humans beings.

Marcus Aurelius, Roman Emperor from 161 til 180, and once the most powerful man on earth, said it best:

“In a sense, people are our proper occupation. Our job is to do them good and put up with them.”

But in real life, things are a bit different. Most of us face bullies, backstabbers, and arses who don’t respect others on a daily basis. In other words: Assholes are everywhere.

But Robert Sutton, author of The Asshole Survival Guide, is committed to change that.
