Do you start fights at work or school?

[Melanie717]

Do you find yourself doing this because you have other stuff going on at home, and then you take it out on coworkers, or even classmates.
Have you ever picked a fight with someone because you were already carrying around stress, or a problem you couldn’t solve, and it felt like an outlet for you to get some of those emotions out? On another person?

(I rarely do this, but a lot of times they say the office bully or school bully usually have others stressors at home, fueling their behavior.)

I have never started a fight at school of workplace myself, I don't vent out my anger on other person. Generally speaking, I am understanding, I listen to other people, but when someone starts misinterpreting me or starts bullying me, I cannot stop myself. That's why I have been into fights at school and workplace a couple of times.

 

[Teri W]

I have not started a fight per say at work. But I have transferred aggression from home to colleagues. And I always feel very terrible thereafter when I am completely calm . It gets worse when I transfer the aggression to junior colleagues. They would just feel inadequate for no fault of theirs. I am trying to control that habit of transferring aggression on people.

Stress can make people lash out, but it's not an excuse to hurt others. Self-awareness matters.

Stress can spill over, but I try to channel frustration into art or writing instead of lashing out at others.

Nope, I don't do such in the first place I don't even like to fight so I stay away from trouble. Anything that would bring issues I ignore such

 

[Commode K]

I really don't love people transferring aggression to other persons that are not the cause of their troubles. I try my best not to take it out on people that don't know a thing about how I feel. I try to smile and focus on what I am to do when I am in the midst of people and not to reflect on the feelings and hurts that I am carrying around.

 

[Shree]

I don’t start fights at work or school. I focus on collaboration, like brainstorming with colleagues over coffee, and resolve conflicts calmly, discussing issues privately to maintain a positive, productive environment for everyone.

 

[BrighterDays]

I never usually start fights. I don't enjoy fighting and I believe that there is a way to communicate without fighting. It's okay to disagree or not be on the same page but there is a healthy mature way of doing it. Sometimes when people are aggressive, rude or ignorant I get annoyed, and I'll say something but I won't fight. I'll say my peace and walk off.

Fighting doesn't resolve anything and I don't ever leave a fight feeling like it was the right thing to do. So I would have to say I never start any fights at work.

It has happened to me before that I just unnecessarily picked on a colleague at work. She wasn't disturbing me but just because my phone screen broke that day, I was so angry. And I transferred it to her when she came to inform me of something I needed to do.

One thing i hate is fights, all through my school years which is more than 15 years put together, i only fought three times and that's it. I always try my best to avoid this at all cause.

 

[Shortie]

I have never picked a fight with anyone in school or in a workplace before, but I do know of people who have when things got a little too much for them.

I am instead someone who tends to keep everything bottled up and then will blow when it all becomes too much. Usually, when that happens, it ends up being my partner who gets the brunt of it, but he understands why most of the time and knows how to handle it.

 

[Jayson]

No, I'm a very gentle person. However, I can be bullied into provoking something. It's happened before.

 

[Fidelia]

I have never started a fight at anytime of my life. I hate fights with every ounce of me. I am one person that is always very calm. I can't even exchange words with someone. It messes with my mental health if I engage in fights.

 

[Starmix]

No, I have never experienced it fighting with a colleague. I am a reserved type , yet friendly . It will be crucial f there is a co-worker or classmate who provides a fight.

 

[Jayson]

I got in a fight at this one workplace. My job wasn't going so great, and this guy was drunk and taunting me, so I punched him in the head.

I'm ashamed of it now and we are friends.

I think the big problem is being drawn into mismatched job environments. Some work and some don't.

I understand your situation and feelings at that time. Just imagine a drunk co-worker appeared and taunted you. He was provoking you to a fight, which you didn't resist. That surely happens if the environment is lousy.

I was bullied at school and it was a nightmare for me. I endured that nightmare for two whole years and I finally got relief when I passed out and when I got admitted to college. Those two years were a hell nightmare for me and it left a psychological dent on my mental health. It's been almost 18 years and these memories still haunt me.

 

[Jayson]

I got in a lot of fights in middle school because of bullying. However, fighting wasn't the answer. The big problem was I couldn't generate respect among peers because they viewed me as physically weak and a crybaby.

So, in that case, trying my hand at sports or something would have been a better option than threatening fights whenever provoked by some brats.

Thankfully, you were mentally and emotionally strong. Many ended their lives because they were not able to handle bullies and fights. Why didn't you report it to your teacher or to your parents?
