Whatever your problem is, chances are I have dealt with it- either directly of indirectly- at some point in my life. I've worked as a Social Worker (with issues like mental illness, addiction, disabilities, eating disorders, etc.)

I've also taught school (to teens!)and have experience mentoring them.

In addition to that, I've lived in 4 different countries, many different cities, and worked jobs in all different fields from Software Sales to Fashion Designer.

This diverse life experience has given me knowledge on a wide variety of topics- which I hope I can put to good use here. :-)

So go ahead- ask away!

PS- I do not judge people or speak to them in a condescending way. However, I will be honest and tell you what you NEED to hear, not what you WANT to hear.

How can I keep my cool when dealing with a rude coworker? (link)
Sometimes it's tough.
But the thing that helps me 'keep my cool' sometimes is remembering that I am not perfect either. I'm sure there have been times when someone has found me rude or annoying and I may not have even realized it. When you look at it that way, it helps you to be a little more tolerant of others.

If that doesn't work and the rudeness persists, then instead of getting angry, I just feel sorry for them, and thank my lucky stars that I was taught manners. :-)
