Is the translation industry the new High School?

So I could'nt help wondering: Are we freelancers still stuck in High School? So much drama, back-stabbing and deceiving feedback regarding other translators work, it is due to lack of quality or have our egos blown out of propotions?

...not a high school. I would not have survived even for three weeks. 

Certainly not in the movie 'Cry Wolf' I saw on Canal+ last night where "high school seniors playing a game of lies come face-to-face with terror" ... (http://www.phase9.tv/movies/crywolf.shtml)

RE: Is the translation industry the new High School?

Maybe it depends "which high school".  I would not want my relationship with colleagues and clients to resemble the fictional world I've seen on television, but then, I don't live in a fictional world.  I and my two sons each attended a different high school, and I'd not be unhappy to have that type of interaction of any of the three institutions and their "inhabitants".
