there are certain people that require respect in this society... the elderly... who should be recognized for the accomplishments.. and journeys they have traveled before us... and then there are the people that are on a higher level due to the fact... they are our bosses..or supervisors at work or school or because of the title they have such as pastor... or sheriff. but you have to bear in mind..that these people also have feelings.. problems and faults.. in other words they are just human beings.. that have an affect on your life. ..but that affect is as serious as you make it. if a boss has the potential to fire you... you have to decide how important it is to keep that job.. or find another. so you act accordingly. if you are terrified of losing that job...than the boss has you by the b--- . superiors are to be dealt with , with respect... but they are also to be reminded that you also deserve respect as a human being..and you will not accept anything less. have you ever noticed that like a bully superiors know who to mess with and who not too. when you are in the right..and know you duties.. etc.. you should have no reason for fright or panic. it is natural to be nervous.. everyone is ..at one time or another..but sheer panic.. or fright means you have the wrong position.

I treat superiors as equals because they are equals and the best superiors know this and the worst superiors aren't superior at all and shouldn't be put in a superior position. Sad to say.

Sympathy.

You must realize that the person you call a superior wipes his or her *** just like you do.

You must also understand that they are in a position that requires them to ACT superior, but that when they go home they have to ACT like a part of the family.

A superior is really just someone who has been at it a little longer than you have been.

Treat this person as a person.

Period.

When I was afraid of a superior (which actually didn't happen many times in my 35 years experience in office), I just followed the trick which gave my last teacher to me almost 40 years ago. He said: "If you feel, you can not escape from him and the situation, just for a moment imagine he would stand in front of you without any clothes."

And believe me, this gave ME for the crucial moment enough superiority to survive.

The better question might be, how do you deal with those you deem as inferior?
One would suggest that if indeed, there are people who are inferior, then those people who are superior(s) ought to treat those below them, with respect and humility.
It would seem, that it is rather people with power, who may do well to learn how to manage their authority over people under their influence. People without power are often vulnerable to any decisions, tasks and tests that those with authority may carry out at their discretion.

I don't have any superiors
I feel inferior to very few.
It is about self esteem. I am secure in the knowledge that I am the best "me" possible. I worked hard to get here, examine your insecurities..........get to the root of where a particular insecurity has originated, confront your insecurities, cause yourself to grow, learn from your mistakes (although there are no real mistakes, only learning opportunities).........this is not an over night remedy....it takes time and work. Good luck.

It depends,If your doing your work right and your superoir is just zeroing in on you just to make you feel crappy and hoping to make you make some mistakes for the big red letter,I would go over this person head and put a complain in...Maybe that will stop things and you can enjoy you work...

By trying to remember that even though they may be in positions of authority- they aren't REALLY "superior", they're human, just like you.

Unfortunately for me or fortunate I do not respect power. I consider them to be the same as me. Now I do realize it is their job to make sure I do my job, and I do my job. But as far as how do I deal with them. Most are my friends, I tease them when they come around. I talk rational to them. They put their pants on one leg at a time that I do. They are just me with better education or usually friends or better breaks. I'm happy for them but they are humans just equal to me.

By retaining your inner superiority. You're too good to be rattled by their petty little ego trips and hissy fits. And you're not going to work here forever.
