Confrontational

Working in a faith based environment, one would think that there aren't any office politics...... BULL!! There are more bitching and back stabbing then ever. I have never ever let these small little attacks affect me. However, if it was a direct attack in front of other, one would feel like its open season.... and you are the target. I had to bring up the issue and plainly tell the attacker off. There have been other incidences that people would talk behind my back and not even confronting straight out. Maybe they are just threaten that I am not an American. ...typical!
