One step closer to the edge and I'm about to break

[Fightfire00]

What is your demeanor like when you are angry? Do you raise your voice? Do things always have to be your way? Do you give orders instead of asking for help or cooperation? Really think about this before you answer.

People in professions like yours do things a certain way every time because it works, it's efficient, it saves lives. And if you're in a command position, that persona is sometimes brought home and you don't even realize it.

It's great in a work situation but in personal R, not so good.

Could that be you?

I used to have a very nasty temper... but I've worked very hard on not losing it anymore... I very rarely give orders at the fire station, I'm a lead by example type.. it doesn't have to be MY way, in fact I'm often very non confrontational, so I tend to say nothing when I disagree...
