Quote From: ggj987The worse you treat people, the more reason you will have to treat them badly. My son worked in a call center dealing constantly with angry people who felt safe abusing the nobodies on the other end of the line. He would often regale us with stories of how he evened the score. He never violated policies or did anything distructive, but he would do exactly what they asked or what the policies said to do. I can guarantee that yelling, cursing, threatening (yes, they were threatened with violence regularly) only resulted in getting the worst possible treatment. The trouble with abusing service workers is that they know a lot more than you do about their company policies, the relevant laws, and the flexibility that they have to solve problems. If you are rude and make unreasonable demands, you will never find out about how they can solve your problem.
I think the first woman and the last woman were just angry at the entire world and acted like bullies.
And the second woman was completely abusive to her husband. If a man was on the show and talking to his wife the way she talked to her husband, Dr. Phil would have read him the riot act.! Of course, she is harming her children as well as her husband. How can those children learn any respect for their father--or for themselves-- hearing their mother curse all the time the way she does to their dad? They must think they are the
most worthless beings in this world belonging to him.
I heard the father say that the only reason he is staying with this out of control woman is because of his kids. I say, he should send a tape of this show to a lawyer and a judge, make sure he gets complete control of the children (she is NOT a fit mother) and leave her as soon as possible.
The enviornment this nutty woman is creating for her family is abusive; not just bitichy. And we all need to recognize that.
(Original Air Date: 02/20/06) Meet three women who each admit to being a "bitch" and proud of it! Kristine, Teresa and Lois all say their demanding bitchiness gets them what they want when they want it. But Dr. Phil challenges their thinking. Is it really working for them? What is behind their bitchy bias, and would their lives change for the better with an attitude adjustment? Share your thoughts, join the discussion.
