A pleasure, Debby. I worked for the miltary for years as a civil servant in an office of my own. A new major came into post. If anyone came into my office, for whatever reason, he used to call out,” gossiping again, Mrs Barrow.” He once told me I’d fastened papers together wrongly;I had to staple the minutes of meetings “at an angle of forty-five degrees as far as possible in the top left hand corner.” I’ve always been a strong person but after two years of this kind of behaviour I had a breakdown. So more power to your elbow on this post, my lovely friend.xx
It’s astounding to hear these types of stories about how people in authoritative positions love to lord their power over others. Much like the customs agents at the borders intimidating innocent travelers. We must not remain shrinking violets. ❤ xo
