Dear Mr. Wang,
I haven’t been able to get a good night’s sleep recently. The reason for my sleeplessness is that I am plagued by distress and anxiety these days.
Every morning when I step into the office, a sense of outrage always grips me when you start mocking me. I hate to say this, but it really gets on my nerves whenever you discount my opinions, or when you call me “dummy” or “idiot” in front of other co-workers. Those words are like an invisible evil giant grabbing my throat and suffocating me. I feel hurt and belittled. When I am suffering the humiliation of being criticized in public, I don’t know how to manage my temper. So, I often end up behaving badly. I didn’t mean to put things off, nor did I ever want to talk to you in a disrespectful way. I am very sorry about this. I know it’s impossible for me to take back my offensive words once they have been spoken. But, if at all possible, do you know how hard I have been fighting to stay calm and cool when I am trapped by your verbal insults? Please forgive me, and help me find a way out. I do hope I can escape from this prison of verbal assault and improve my work ability.
Yours truly,
Antonio Lee
