I remember when I got my first job. On numerous occassions, my boss called me "dumb", "what are you stupid?", "this is horrible", "what the !@#$ were you thinking?", etc. It kinda sucked at the time, but I brushed it off and moved forward. Granted, I am somewhat thick in the head and make mistakes, but I don't hold it against my old boss. It's the way some people operate. There are a lot of Richie Incognitos in this world...the trick is to deal with them with a head nod and get back to business. Unfortunate that Martin couldn't do that, but to point the finger of blame at RI alone is misguided. He's wired a certain way and we've all met "those guys". Just have to push through it.
