A friend is experiencing some office politics. I shared this

People demanding that you are obedient to them (and requiring you to be a mind reader) is human nature.

If you can allow them to be human AND stick to high road 99.99% of the time, you will impress yourself.

If you can allow them to be human AND get more shit done than they get done, then you will impress yourself AND them.

A saying a friend told me, during a very difficult situation, comes to mind:

Time Vindicates All Things

Your list of points to consider works in that direction. Sometimes it takes a week and sometimes it takes a year and sometimes it takes a lifetime.

"Condemnation by category is the lowest form of hatred for it is cold hearted and abstract, lacking the heat and even the courage of a personal hatred." -Wendell Berry

My pie came with a little toothpic holding up this tiny ad:
