[Batman] I'm a poor schmuck with very little options left for employment while my wife has just informed me she's pregnant. I did an interview with Arkham Asylum despite its notorious reputation and guess what...I got hired. What's the best course of action while working to keep from the lunatics?

I would take a page from Barney from the Hannibal Lecter novels; just try to be polite and cordial.

Some of them (Nygma, Isley, Quinzel, Wesker) are perfectly capable of holding down a polite conversation if treated respectfully, and probably won't harm someone just because they're there.

Others (Crane, Tetch, Dent needless to say is about 50/50) are on the less predictable side, and may very well be fucking with you if they seem to be acting reasonably. Be civil, but keep your guard up.

And needless to say interact with Joker as little as possible. If he makes a crack that involves less than fifty dead orphans, maybe a polite chuckle is in order, if you can do it without coming off as patronizing.

But among the more rational residents, they may be insane but they're likely sane enough to prefer working with someone who's respectful, and if they harm you then your replacement might be someone worse. Count on them at least to look after their own self-interest.
