OP : consider yourself lucky because YOU HAVE A SOUL AND YOU KNOW YOU HAVE A SOUL!

I work in the same situation - I even posted about my work related issues and my emotions, just check my previous posts, maybe those can help.

But you are not alone. I cannot stand heartless SOBs that seem to propagate into our work environments.

What do I do? I fight!! That's my advice to you. I learned the hard way to fight, not just let it pass. Does this also make me a SOB, no, because I fight only these heartless SOBs and stick up for the regular people like me, sort of like a corporate robin hood.

Your Name here is 'StrongerMan' right!! Start being one! Stand up to these jerks! You'll be surprised. most of these people never have anyone tell them how it is and put them in their place. Once you do, they go into shock. Because they have fragile ego's, and everyone kissing their butt makes their ego's so inflated, they get a sense that they are above everything and everyone and emotions of others don't matter. Deflate their balloon! You'll see they act like big cowards then.
