Today, I was put on notice at work due to my "anger problem." Apparently, sighing in a meeting means you'll be labeled as someone with a short temper. However, the creepy stalker guy is on the fast track to management. FML

Thats because creepy stalker guy is nearby when they need him

He'd be a good manager because of his "observing skills"

Agreed with this statement. It's how office behavior is, just don't let it escalate into office politics.

Tell them you should have them pay for you to go to anger management classes, while you're on the clock! Hey, they accused you of it, so you should look good looking as if you are trying to get help. And if you can get paid to go to the classes, everyone is WINNING!

Creepy stalkers are not usually angry, unless their prey does something stupid like pull down their window shades. They are usually found masturbating happily, which is exactly what middle management does. You might think of investing in some sunglasses to conceal your condescending eye-rolls.

If someone is speaking, it is inconsiderate to sigh honestly. I once got wrote up at work for "sighing" when a United Way spokesman was chatting, ans I do not like the United Way as a charity. I laughed it off. Just laugh off the punishment and go on with life, don't let it bother you and it will be forgotten about in no time.

Yea, I wouldn't go so far as to call it a sign of anger, but sighing during a meeting is very unprofessional.

I hate when people overreact like that. I´ve been in a similar situation before and it totally sucks!
