Default Anyone ever taken a anger management course??

Well my current job is kinda complicated. I have to do very techincal designs and i also have todo administrative paper work. Which is fine most of the time. Given the size of company i work for i have to interface with alot of different people some extremely intelligent and some can barely tie thier shoes. Soooooo this brings the issue. I just dont deal well with stupid people and stupid no value added administrative task. Then i usually get frustrated dealing with the tards and basically i become an *******. Yep i will admit it. Sooooo i had a long talk with my boss today and she knows me and how i operate. I have had one my personal work objectives for the last couple of years to work on my attitude. So she mentioned today that i need to learn how to deal when i get frustrated. Soooo i thought maybe a anger management course or issue resoution course may help. Just wondering if anyone else has had similar issues and how you deal with stupid people. Becasue that stopping and taking a deep breath does not work for ****, basically all it does is make me think of how pissed off i am and then i just lay into people.

I go to the drag strip or I use to get on the motorcycle and ride like an *** (one of the reasons I sold it recently). Great way to clear the mind.

Never been to an anger management class but I have been through some of the things you are describing and can relate to how frustrating it is. I say take the class, it can't hurt as long as you go into it with an open mind and willing to listen

Corey, i completely understand,

Im a supervisor/foreman for my company, I have crews from 2 guys up to 36, its like adult daycare sometimes, everyone has a problem and just cant do simple tasks, its VERY frustrating and pisses me off sometimes,

Then i go home and have 2 young kids ( 4 and 18 mo.) which make stress levels higher. Im no different than anyone else here, but i have a bad temper,

So i went to a psychologist for help, i dont like having anger issues. I do take meds to help take the edge off, they dont " drug" me or make me dopey, and i still can get angry when i need to, they arent perfect but in combo with talking about my stressors really helps.

You need to find what works for you, there are different ways of dealing with it as im sure you know.

I say keep laying into those retarded *****. Theres only one way to get the point these days, and its by getting your *** handed to you. Too many people never experience that anymore, and they just drown in their own idiot stupor... I think you're doing us all a favor by laying into morons when they need it. I do the same thing. I'd say only 25% or so actually get the point, unfortunately...
