“It’s my last year. I’ve stood around too long and I wanted to do something.” - David Shepherd.
Turn the other cheek. Try to understand why he’s a bully. Consider that his hurtful words and actions are probably fueled by - or masking - a deeper personal problem.

This is my dog Chopper, a.k.a Chops, a.k.a. Chopstick, a.k.a. Chopperstick. She’s the most photogenic animal I’ve ever encountered - not because she’s beautiful, but because she poses. For every picture. Seriously.
