Ralph,
I should make it clear... it was NOT contractors or trades dishing out
all the foul and degrading crap... it was supposed 'professional' types
on the street, in the open to whomever happened to be passing and it was
very loud. A half dozen of them stomping on one lone young conservator.
After everyone calmed down they realized it had been over nothing. I
don't know how that got soothed over, or not, but my attitude if I were
the conservator (who when not being ganked can be as foul mouthed as
anyone) would be a bit biased after that.
It was the elder members of the gang that needed the stress management,
leastways enough self-control to investigate the situation before
blowing a gasket.
I am reminded of at least two projects where the project manager (on the
client side) was said to have had a nervous breakdown and required
hospitalization as a result. There is really nothing very pretty about a
lot of these situations.
