Lose Your Temper (Safely)
We're all going to lose our temper at some point in our lives, and it's not always going to be pretty. But don't worry, we've got you covered! Our expertly trained team of professional tantrum-throwers (just kidding, but wouldn't that be cool?) have compiled a comprehensive guide on when it's safe to unleash the beast.
Warning Signs:
- When someone cuts you off on the road, especially during rush hour.
- When the in-laws come over for a visit.
- When you run out of snacks in the break room.
Safe to Lose Your Temper:
- When you just got back from a relaxing vacation, but the airport was terrible.
- When your significant other leaves the cap off the toothpaste (again).
- When the barista gets your order wrong (seriously, it's a travesty).
Protocols:
- Take 5 deep breaths before reacting.
- Count to 10, but not 10,000.
- Call your mom, but only if she's not the one who left the cap off the toothpaste.
Remember, losing your temper is like riding a bike: you have to start with training wheels, and then eventually, you'll be able to do it all on your own!
