I’m sure this person does not mean by other employees, but rather by the customers. And it’s a profoundly accurate insight to realize that so much of the modern world puts people in a position to be treated as objects in so many different ways. How much of our treatment of especially low-paid employees would be truly immoral or bullying if there weren’t a structured expectation that this is normal or acceptable? However, the berating of such people by their superiors is certainly also a very serious concern. So the next time I interact with anyone, I need to be sure I’m continuing to treat them with the dignity of someone made in the image of God, regardless of how lowly society thinks they are because of their job.
