Heh, unfortunately it's been this way in almost every company I have been in.

I don't think that I have ever been in a company where I haven't had to deal with it - and it's taken me a while to work it out, I've had physical threats and (just this Christmas gone) been punched in the stomach at a work Christmas event by someone upset that I'm able to point out these other ways of doing things.

People are very scared of losing what little power they think that they have.
