How Working With Rude People Can Destroy Your Sleep—And How to Stop It

Researchers at Oakland University set about investigating if coping with rude behavior at work was associated with insomnia. In their small study, the team asked 699 employees of the U.S. Forest Service, which is in charge of the nation's 154 forests and 20 grasslands, to rate the levels of rude behavior they encountered in the workplace, and their negative thoughts about their job. The U.S. Forest Service did not respond to a Newsweek request for comment.
