Do you know someone at your school who has zero tact or courtesy? Someone who bulldozes every idea or suggestion you give? Someone who tries to control or manipulate every situation? Or someone who carries drama around like a purse – everywhere they go?

Maybe you feel like you have to walk on eggshells around them so you don’t accidentally press the wrong button. Or maybe you try to avoid them altogether.

Your job as a teacher is hard enough on its own. And having to deal with difficult people while you’re there can make it feel like it’s 10 times harder.

But is there anything can you do about it?
