"There have definitely been a few times on the job where I felt it was difficult to control my temper. I don't get mad easily because I tend to let things roll off my back. One time, in particular, I had a coworker who was always late to relieve me. It's one thing to be late once or twice, but when they are consistently late to relieve you, it can become a big problem. I talked to him about it many times and he always just blew me off. He even seemed mad at me for bringing it up. I finally went and talked to my supervisor and explained the situation. He agreed that it was something that needed to be addressed, but he also said I had to be the one to solve it. I went back and talked to my coworker several more times and explained how he really created a hardship for me when I've already been working 12 hours and he shows up 30 minutes late. He ended up quitting soon after, so the problem was naturally resolved. If that hadn't happened, I would have gone back to my boss to explain that I needed him to intervene at that point."
