I havent a clue what it is about, but i do know, that one of the people i have to speak to when i get there, doesn't like me and always loves to belittle me.I am a very shy person, wouldnt say boo to a goose, when it comes to my workplace anyway, and i'd quite like it to stay that way. But i also want to show them that when it comes to it, i can stick up for myself if needs be.Has anyone got any tips on how to get through this meeting without looking like a stuttering fool?I always get the shakes and my mind goes blank, then once out of a meeting i am full of retorts. How can i use them while it is the moment for it, and not afterwards when i can hardly go barging back into the office to use them.Hope you can help. Thanks
