Workplace bullying has not diminished during the pandemic. The Workplace Bullying Institute (WBI) recently released its 2021 U.S. Workplace Bullying Survey: https://workplacebullying.org/2021-wbi-survey/ . Promoting civility in the workplace - and interrupting jerk behavior - is critical to building a respectful workplace culture and to our having a healthy return to normal life after the pandemic. The 2004 Poopgate bridge incident in Chicago is a vivid example of how one jerk can impact others.
