You may or may not have an example of this situation at work, but if needed, give a general example outside of work. Make sure and explain the situation, who was involved, why you felt you were being treated unfairly, and most importantly, the action steps you took to resolve it. Do not give examples of yelling at coworkers or supervisors, leaving the job site to cool off, or any other extreme examples. Try to think of a time where you were able to show self-control and display an even temperament despite the unfair situation.

"I can't think of a lot of examples of this, but I do recall a time where my coworker and I were getting a lot of heat from our supervisor. We felt like we were constantly getting blamed for things that were beyond our control and were being treated unfairly because of it. It wasn't a big deal at first, but when it became an issue we both went and talked to him about it. In the end, we realized he was under a lot of pressure from his managers and was just passing along the annoyance to us. Once he realized how it was affecting us, he stopped and talked directly to his managers about the issues he was having."
