[QUOTE="Kzach, post: 4610227, member: 56189"] That's messed up. It reminds me of a work situation I was in recently. One of the guys is an alcoholic (he brags about drinking 4 litres of cask wine a day) and out of the blue and with zero provocation, snapped at me in a very vicious manner. Having worked as a security guard and handled violent situations before, I recognised in him the potential to do some real harm. He was obviously in withdrawal and was already a very aggressive person. So I asked not to work with him. I don't want to be around him when he snaps. All my bosses not only ignored the request, but actually had the gall to make me out as the bad guy. I could've gone to the union about it but I'm quitting soon anyway, so I've just put up with it. Point is, you haven't a clue about the actual situation and yet you take the side of the potential aggressor. If anything, by default, the non-aggressor who feels grieved should be the one who gets the spot. The other is possibly a trouble-maker who causes conflict. [/QUOTE]
