I would usually get along OK with the higher ups - but the people I had to work with were a major cause of daily problems. Having to work with a disyfunctional alcoholics drinking on the job and cover for them, work with people with cognitive impairment (operating on industrial machinery that can dismember you while a guy with ~80IQ is fumbling arround and already had incidents of almost injuring people), etc.
The shit jobs I had were shit because of coworkers. I didn't do a lot of them, this is only anecdotal, etc. etc. but I just wanted to add a counterpoint.
I had the complete opposite experience in SW, there the stress usually does come from higher up and coworkers are usually either great or not a problem.
