@missclairebenjamin: 🚨Handling condescending comments👇 When someone makes a belittling comment especially when they are more senior to you it can be really difficult to know how to respond without causing conflict. We may respond in a passive aggressive way or keep how we’re feeling held inside. The trouble is then we haven’t addressed the situation and it’s likely it will happen again. We have to teach people how to treat us and what we will and will not tolerate. In this scenario in the first instance I would recommend being respectful and directly saying what you need: “Thank you for clarifying that. Can you call me Claire instead of little missy. I’d feel more comfortable with that” If it happens again then you can be more assertive. Often all it needs is a simple response as shown in this video. 💬 Leave a 🙌 in the comments if this was helpful 👀 📌 Please be mindful that the perspective offered in this video is generalised and won’t fit every situation so please follow your instincts about whether this applies to your situation. You’ve got this! 🗂️ Save this for when you need it ✈️ Share with someone this could help 🚀 Follow for more tips on handling tricky people and situations at work #worktips #leadershipdevelopment #corporatelife #emotionalintelligence #difficultconversations #communicationskills #conflictmanagement #managingpeople #assertive #managertips #difficultpeople

My boss called me “young lady” at age 26-27 and I told him that it was offensive and he had no idea 🙄

A manager once told me “it’s common sense though isn’t it” to attend a meeting no one else was in attendance to 😅 - apparently not common sense if no one else is there

I am a manager and refer to a couple of my team members as kid, this has really made me think. It’s just a nickname in my eyes , it’s a loving nod to them but I will ensure I change it going forward.

How do you handle a colleague who thinks they’re the manager yet has been there less time than you. It’s doing my head in!!

The thing about this is they don’t like to be told to treat you as any other adult. I spoke up about this at my job and it was held against me until the end even though I was just creating a professional boundary.

The owner joked about how I’m so underpaid that I can’t afford groceries during a meeting with just me and the higher ups. They all laughed. I quit a few weeks later and my manager said she refuses

This is the opposite of what happened to me. I don’t drink anymore, but when I did a colleague had drinks to celebrate getting married and I ended up getting drunk and starting fights! Fights: plural

This was helpful. I was called Little Miss FOI (my job is about FOIs) the other day and I was very taken aback.

Had a coworker call me darling and sweets and sugar and she was a gem but I asked her to call me by my name and she literally stopped talking to me altogether. Like okay.
