And I wish everyone great success in overcoming all of their lack of assertiveness issues and may you come to terms with all of your issues and live a long, happy and healthy life!

First, I apologize for being so derogatory. My problem is basically as if I don't have any backbone. I've had co-workers who had no right to push me around. I just get very shaky when someone is pushing me around and I'm afraid I'll lose control and look and act inappropriate.

in a work situation there is a power imbalance,if you assert, you can get fired. How you deal with that is you cannot assert directly to a superior, you have to go through formal grievance channels, such as the organization omsbuds, or higher up authority. If you go to higher up authority, you have to do it right, or you'll just make yourself look bad.Read People Skills by Bolton. need to go to college so you aren't at the bottom of the hill all your life or start your own business.

I hate this guy and all the other assertiveness idiots. All they ever deal with is very generic things. When do they ever deal with things that are causing people distress? Such as when people are pushing you around at work???

"...don't respond to the other person's anger." - silence in interpersonal communication. It's not about "giving in" or being weak. Like "fogging" - sometimes it's better to let people push against an open door.
