It amazes me how inconsiderate people can become when they are promoted at work. Take my "boss". When I was hired she was an assistant director, but has since been promoted to director. At first she remained the considerate and level headed supervisor she had always been. But recently I have seen a darker side creeping to the surface. Fortunately I have not been the brunt of her displeasure. I understand with more responsibility comes MORE RESPONSIBILITY. But that doesn't excuse chastising an individual in front of co-workers. That was something she would never have done in the past.
And on that note, why do people feel it is acceptable to get to the top by crawling over others? Putting down your co-workers doesn't make you look good, it makes you look nasty! But people continue to do this in order to get to the top! What's so great up there that you would hurt another person to get there??? I don't get it.
And why is it that people who are hard workers often get positions of "power" and suddenly become incapable of doing anything?
