Ask for Respect
I have this guy who works in a cubicle near me always busting on me: making fun of my voice or something I said. Instead of fighting back I just laugh it off. If he does something to help me I thank him and make sure he knows he’s doing a good job. Once he knew I respected him, I looked him straight in his eyes and told him that he has to ease up on busting on me and give me some respect. I knew that I deserved it. You can’t ask for something you don’t believe in. He’s been falling back into his old ways now and again, but for the most part he’s been cool.
