Warning: This guide is not for the faint of heart. If you're not prepared to face the absurdity of it all, please turn back now.
Step 1: Develop a thick skin. Like, really thick. Like, "I've got a 4-inch thick layer of concrete around my heart" thick.
Step 2: Learn to identify the subtle art of passive-aggressive body language. It's like a game of "Who can say the most hurtful thing with a smile?"
Step 3: Find your inner zen. Or, you know, just pretend to. It's all about the image, baby!
And for the love of all things sane, click here for Leader 1's Zen Meditations to learn more about embracing the absurdity.
And don't forget to check out Leader 1's War Pony for some seriously questionable advice on how to deal with the drama.
Now, go forth and face the Committee of Conundrums with confidence (or at least, a healthy dose of denial).
