    wondern replied to haney13's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Some great points, SpankedinPittsburgh, if only it was that cut and dry. Some people love their job and want to keep it and make the unethical bully leave. If you have no power to make change there,...

    wondern replied to EGspirit's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Toxic Workplace: have the rose colored glasses fallen off?

    wondern replied to lelms's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations
