觉得易老师的意思是不要主观地去想像老板在故意折磨人。

或者，不要be judgemental.In general I believe that is correct. The positive attitude also helps to resolve conflicts and issues.

having that siad, 我确实亲眼见过老板是如何给人穿小鞋的。基本的目的是要force people out.相信那感觉的确难受。Firing someone usually takes too long and costly with a severance package to protect company.creating a hostile environment so that peole will leave on their own is much easier.
