> As soon as the boss woman showed up she declared that the room was too hot and ordered the employee to ask the staff to turn on the AC immediately. She sounded extremely self important and uppity the whole time, like a spoiled brat who was forced to do "work" (driving to places and bossing people around) for the first time in their lives.
>I don't know what it is that has these people so horribly passive aggressive, competitive and generally insufferable.
I know this exact type of woman. I have dealt with this type a lot when I was working at a nursing home. There were some women there who were like that - it was mostly the ones in charge of running or managing the place, the nurses were usually genuinely nice people - one of them was the head of the nursing home, and there was another one working under her who was just as passive aggressive and constantly bitchy as her boss. But after a while I noticed that she was like that to everybody. Generally people who are rude or passive aggressive like that have some inner ego issues or are overworked or just hate their job. People that are rude, it's always on them, because there is never any justification for being rude

>I'm not saying I'm not a little crazy, I probably am, but I DO NOT think the problem is only on my end.
It does not sound like it's on your end, but you can choose how you deal with it or respond to it. I can't remember which stoic said it but there is a quote that goes something like "if you let somebody upset you, then you are complicit in it." i.e. you have to give your own permission first to let it affect you. usually this happens subconsciously
