It’s almost SOP for abusive personalities to keep a cadre of ‘He/She has always been great to me...’ deflectors at hand to gaslight and muddy the waters.
Having been raised by the type, I can tell you, you have to look beyond the smokescreen.
I don't get why they keep working there. I've has some major jackass bosses. You only get to treat me like crap for so long.
Keep in mind, for actors, depending on the project, it is ‘only for so long’.
These aren’t full time jobs, they’re projects that last months and then you move on, or at least have a good, long break. Grin, or at least bear it, for 3, 6, 8 months and the cheese at the end of the maze is a nice check with a healthy number of zeroes on it? Versus going head to head with your ‘genius’ boss who puts fat stacks in the company’s bank account?
It’s not hard to figure out where many, if not most, people are going to land on that one.
We have to teach young people to stand up for themselves in real time. Look at the emotional, lifelong damage allowing someone to humiliate you has caused that young woman. As the old folk like to say "all money ain't good money."
