Robert, I have dealt with catty women. I am a nurse. They say "Nurse eat their young"! They are renowned for being unkind to newbies. I know I got treated like an idiot in my first nursing position. I'll admit I still had a lot to learn but they were just downright rude bitches to me.

On Medium, I guess I have been lucky but I also ignore anything I perceive to be snarky. Maybe my head is just in the clouds.

I loved the new nurses too.
