oh, ya ....if they see a sledge hammer go flying !
they know im pissed !

Oh Yes. People often mistake my good manners for submissiveness, then they push me too far. I have now earned respect at my current job.

and I`ve always felt like crap after,..

I`m sure there is a much better way to handle conflict,..

Ya know, I've seen that...... Kinda cool actually.....

I watched a guy toss a bench top drill press across my shop once......

Does a bear sh!t in the woods?

yes, it was really hard not to act out but I did

Yes. I was 18 and working in a furniture factory. I had been bent over all day sanding the table legs and my back was hurting really bad. My Supervisor came over and told me I had to work over and I told him no and why. He called me a liar and I went off. I cussed him so bad, even a sailor would have been embarrassed with the words that came out of my mouth. My Supervisor was shocked and took me to the main office to have a talk with the District Supervisor. While waiting, I just kept praying to God that they would fire me, (yes I was too stupid to realize that I could have just quit and walked out). Anyway, when he came in, he told me that my behavior was very unladylike (really?) and that I was being let go. I walked out without saying a word and never went back there again.

Yes......just did, the other day when my boss started making uncalled for remarks about my family-life and my "lack of owning up to my responsibilities"..................so I threw the chair I was sitting in against the wall and told her I better get back to work, you know.....my responsibility.

My patience seem to get tested everyday with a certain coworker. I have lost my patience but i am not proud when i get pushed to that point. I would rather just ry to ignore her all together.

Just did a couple of times last yesterday-into-this-morning (been up a grand total of 28 hours as a result)- I kept getting brow-beaten by one of my co-workers and ended up getting back in his face. In fact, I'm still a bit pissed about the whole thing.

Wow to the point it is a miracle I still have a job have well lets say no Sailor could have keep up with me and yes I was talking to my Boss which owns the company as well. I was well lets say not only vocal about it but when I slammed the door it came off of one of the hinges. He did finally listen to me and realized he accused the wrong one of doing something they did not do.

Yep I still work there and been there 12 years.

yep

Yeppers... Shocked the Hell out of everyone, I think you could have heard a pin drop all the way across the building..They even got a dose of my err. colourful words in several different languages...

At least once or twice a day!

No, in fact I've NEVER lost my temper, I keep it in my left... Crap! Where did it go?

Oh heck yeah I did. Put my fist through a partition instead of my supervisors face. Got me fired. F Aerospace! I make more money doing what I am doing!

yes i get tested on occasions big bosses with ties think there the law we say something back we get fired not fair thats work place bullying its against the law to pick on someone your sapost to have respect for people not treat them like garbage i say lose your temper we deserve respect you get fired you get fired nobody has the right to yell at anyone

my boss is 100% italian....you tell me

I have lost my temper but soon found it.....at work, it can happen but mostly Ive lost my mind. If anyone can find it, I would appreciate getting it back!!

ohhhhhh yeah I have

once, working in the oilfield, I couldn't get the Mexicans working for me to come out from under the truck after lunch. It was hot and they didn't wanna come out of the shade

I yelled at em a couple of times and then finally threw a 48" pipe wrench under the truck as hard as I could.

They came out then
