What you are discussing is called Reactive Abuse. And I know employers sometimes use this type of behavior in order to entrap an employee into purposely trying to get them to overreact to the employer’s set up. I agree, try to pause, or as I used to say to myself when I was in that exact situation, and that was, “don’t put fuel on the fire.” It worked for me, to remain calm during very stressful work situations.

Unfortunately, there are people that intentionally try to provoke in order to draw out negative reactions. For this reason, I leave work early or take a long lunch. I am not going to give people that power to try to get me to lose a job like that.

Never say or do anything out of anger, it impairs your critical thinking and decision making.

Silence is my superpower. Once you master the art of using silence to take control of various situations, you will see things very differently.

My co worker left after 7 yrs. . At a high positio .I found out he tried to cut down his hours to 50 to 60 hours and his boss threatened to fire him. His boss has no idea all the work he did. Now he is screwed

Regina, you are right on!!! The Bible offers wisdom on topics you spoke on: self-control, silence, the tongue, anger, a soft versus hard answer. I'm living this and still learning. Selah. Semper pro grediens. 🎉

Brilliant analysis once again.<br><br> The most powerful thing you can do is absolutely nothing. Master the pause...<br><br>Over the years as I'm sure others here will agree, that we've witnessed or actually been part of a situation at work and that pause could have solved all of it!<br><br>I suppose that pause is a silent take a deep breath.<br><br>👏

You nailed it, and it’s so true. When you react, you give them power. They want to see you react. I’m telling you, I’ve made people even more angry at work simply by acting completely clueless about the things they were trying to do to me. When I don’t respond, or I simply leave them alone and go about my business—THEY HATE THAT. 😂
