"Bullying at work is the repeated, mistreatment of a target by a harassing bully, that is driven by the bully's desire to control the target. It can include humiliation, interference, and witholding resouces and support preventing the target from suceeding at work."

"Co-workers side with the bully'[The bully holds the cheque book]

"Bullies control every aspect of the reign of power-When to move in on their target, when to hold pack, the place, the audience".

"Bullies use surprise and secrecy to gain control over their targets"
[Most at risk-new esl teachers with no Korean language skills, when there is a problem, suddenly all Koreans can speak no English even though its a core school subject-funny that!]

"Targets are a diverse normal talented people" [not people outside the mainstream or social rejects as described by some employers.]

The quotes here are taken out of the book named The Bully at Work, by Gary and Ruth Nambie, both with P.H.D's, ISBN 1-57071-534-3, published 2002.

Liberty says be strong all you esl teachers and have a nice day. I'm in my home country now about to start work in an un-related field. I'm sending this to you guys because I know that there isn't much information available to you, except over the internet. More to follow.
Love from Liberty.
