Telling a manager is usually policy, and altercations between coworkers frowned upon. Snotty workers get canned! At least in at-will states, haha. That stuff isn't acceptable in "real" life.
It IS sadly true, at least in my observations and experience. If an extrovert was picking on an introvert, they were told to stop, but not punished. The introvert is told to come out their shell.
That's a weird stereotype too. I don't have a shell. This is me. I'm not some weird creature with an exoskeleton, I'm just not as expressive as some.

speaking of people being rude, I was volunteering at the library the other day and this lady told me that I should be standing by her desk when I talk because my voice carries. Wow, can't believe she would say such a thing. When my other fellow volunteers were talking a lot and she was on the phone, she did not direct the question at them but to me. Even before i started volunteering, she's always given me an attitude. I notice how her tone of voice changes depending on who she talks to. She needs to be nicer or else I'll talk to the manager about it.
