well, depending on which way they are approaching you and what they are being mean about!. Either way, if people are being rude and mean then you'll probably be feeling some sort of negative emotion towards it!. (understandably so!) If it's in an email, walk away from it!. Don't answer it right away!. It's best not to answer when you're angry!. If it's face to face or on the phone when you're forced to deal with the situation as it's happening I suggest always thinking before you respond!. Getting loud and angry back is not going to solve anything!. Try to talk things out!. But if the other person is being angry and mean you can suggest that you both stop for now, and talk about it when things weren't so heated!. If you are dealing with rude or mean people over the phone, such as customers you can always say "excuse me but there is no need to raise your voice!. If this continues I am going to hang up the phone!." Trust me, doing tech support over the phone for 6 years, I've had to say that a few times!. Hope this helps!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Ok!.!.!.!.Well you have quite a few options but it depends on the type of person they are
Firstly if they are the type of person that is very attention seeking and thrives off of drama then either smile politely and walk away or yawn and walk away -- this gets people soooo angry!.
Secoundly if they say something that really upsets you find their weakspot - what they are most self consious about (everyone is self consious about something) and then use that against them!. Especially If it is infront of loads of people!.
Thirdly there is always the way you can make someone feel dumb and inferior by saying something like "Oh my god are you still rambling on" !.!.!. or !.!.!.!.!. "Your voice is irratating me now"
Lastly there is always the sarcastic comment which I sometimes use!.!.!.!.
Trust me all these things work just decide which one you think is right for the situation and remember ALWAYS speak with confidence and even if you are not sure with what you are saying say it confidently and clearly coz if you act as if you know what you are doing everyone will think you do!.
Good Luck!Www@Enter-QA@Com

Silence is definitely the best answer for a fool!. If that person is being rude, the best course of action is to ignore!. I feel that this is important to do so u don't lose ur integrity and look just like that person, which is classless!. If the person wants to take advantage of ur silence by proceeding further, done take it as a blow to your pride, but just calmly get up and leave!. It might not feel good to you but you would have proved that u were the stronger person!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

I do not rude ppl, so I usually try not to let it bother me, second, try not to take it personally, and third confront if need be!.

Usually it has nothing to do with the one they take it out on !.

ppl like that just like to rant and upset others because they are upset themselves and have no other way to express themselves!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Instead of being rude and mean to the same person, be very respectful and kind to them!. No matter how they treat you!. Pretend that their lack of respect or manners doesn't bother you at all!.

The nicer you are to them, the more jealous they'll become!. And eventually, they may respect you!. It always works for me!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

This is my specialty!.!.!.!.I don't let people treat me with disrespect!. I tell them like it is and respond back with the same tone and put them in their place!. I don't let people push me around!.!.!.!.and that usually shocks them enough where they will never be rude to me again!. Since I work part time as a bartender!.!.!.at times I have a difficult time biting my tongue!.
Don't be a wuss and stand up for yourself!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Confront them!. If you let it go they will continue to walk all of you!. I do try to keep in mind that we dont always know what kind of tough situations that people have going on!.!.!.so I try to be understanding but I wont put up with someone being rude without me saying something!.
Good example!. My kid was hesitating to decide what flavor ice cream to get!.!.!.there were alot of choices!. The older man behind her stuck his head over hers and started ordering!. So I said Excuse me but my daughter is next!. And you will have to wait!. He said She is taking too long and I said I dont care if you have to wait all day, she waited her turn and you'll wait yours!. He was grumpy!. I didnt swear or raise my voice and I looked him right in the eye!. He backed off!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

You don't because arguing back just shows them that they're getting to you and that you're no better then them!. Just being the bigger person will show them they can't mess with you and eventually they'll get bored!. If it gets worse just tell a teacher and let them handle it!. There is no shame in telling on someone that is doing something wrong!. XDWww@Enter-QA@Com

I just dont let it get to me and if it dose i be mean back, teach them a lesson, and they might not do it again next time!.

i fing ignoring them helps too if you just walk away or just sit there while they do it they will get fed up and stop!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

Being nice!. LOL I had this boss that thought I was a pain in the *** from the day he met me!. (I was the youngest employee) He blamed every little problem on me Even when I wasn't there!!!

It was immensely fun for me to be nice to this guy, say hi help him out etc!. He would get so mad! He never was able to get rid of me!. Because he had no leg to stand on everyone around us knew that I am a nice person and he is just a jerk!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

It really all depends upon the situation!. I am not a rude/mean person, but not at all naive!. Most people need to put into there place but it needs to be done tactfully and done to where you are not stooping to their level!. Most rude people are ignorant and have no clue!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

HAH! i need this for me too!! well the way i handled it was just saying ok and being all smiley!.!.!.!.!. i REALLY p!.o!.'ds them! or use big words and dont insult them!.!.!.!. the m akes them mad and they start thinking theyre better than u but they start feeling stupid and walk away!.!.but then u can ignor them!.!.!.!.!. ppl say it works!.!.!. (it doesnt) lol i like thesmiley oe!. =] hope i helped
