This , definitely . Poor kid . <| sep |> This is like getting cash in an ATM machine . <| sep |> Oh , at first I thought it said Chandler Bing and I was really confused . <| sep |> That reminds me of how my workplace once was , lots of condescension masked as academic integrity . Also with the facials expressions , I know that it can sound really pathetic , but when you have a senior staff person shoving their face into their hands all the time you ' re talking it can come across harshly . Unfortunately I don ' t have much advice because it really depends on your own work and environment and options . The only 2 cents I ' ll add is if you talk to someone make the issue more about you than them , in the sense of ' when this happens in a meeting I feel uncomfortabe '.

The person I mentioned above was an expert at putting in on the insecurities of any person making a complaint , but its actually a stronger position to be in to say ' What are you going to do about me feeling uncomfortable ' if people are accused of bullying and they successfully deny it nothing will change
