I&#x27;m responding to these sentences in your original post:<p>&quot;If you don&#x27;t have a thick skin, you&#x27;ll have to grow one, and if you can&#x27;t grow one, they&#x27;ll just eat you alive.
Eventually you realise it&#x27;s either you or them. That&#x27;s when you&#x27;ve mastered it.&quot;<p>Subsequent comments of yours have been more reasonable, but the text of what you wrote in your original comment certainly implies a combative, us-vs-them mentality.
