A Moment of Weakness

[OrangeBlood]

so you're human, **** happens!

I wouldn't beat yourself up too bad over it.

this is a terribly stressful time for EVERYONE understandable that you lost your cool. to error is human. the fact that you quickly went and tried to make it right shows a lot about your values as a human being. like others have said learn from it and move on

Amen, very difficult time for all regardless of your position on how things are being handled.
Hang in there.

Jointly...no. I've apologized individually to my department and the individuals from other departments who were present. I dont think he's the kind of guy who would want a joint apology. I've done my part and will use this as a lesson for myself.

Sounds like a man that I would not have issues being around! Deaux your best to stay positive. You still have work even though you are stuck out there with him. U are not missing much......except obviously your family. Deaux what you deaux and try to enjoy it. Great message for all of us actually!

Sounds to me that somebody missed out on an arse whuppin’! Just not sure who.

It's an epidemic too...

I have seen several construction dudes loose their chit this week. Working with hot headed Super right now that I want knock the freak out like right now..

Deep breath, pray on it, move on bud. Your co workers understand I'm sure.

I got sent my 24hr notice Monday afternoon. The punk super and pos PM both blamed owner. Spoke with owner this morning and needless to say I was not very professional. We showed up today as planned.

Chit never ends.

Go wash you hands. None of us are perfect. You handled it well in the end. Godspeed.

Just a thought. We are not suppose to shake hands. Social distancing. Full on sarcasm for those in the back.

You are already on your way there to recovery...own it & approach each individual as you feel it's needed. Everyone needs their own time & if there is one thing I've learned the disruptions can strengthen bonds if handled properly. Don't worry about any fault on the other party & control what you can.

I've been in sales for most my life w/ manufacturing & the oil patch for the past 20yrs & one thing I learned is when an engine / compressor isn't moving gas, it's is the same exact thing as your product being involved with line down for a fortune 500 company. Doesn't matter who's fault it is be it my supplier didn't come through, a design change/flaw via the customer or a mechanic broke the part & had no spare, the sales guy is the punching bag who filters how the reactions are going to get back up to the brass on both sides.

Crisis management sucks but I've found very early on being honest & owning when it's on you deflates the situation & then you get onto recovery & gains trust. I could give examples for days but sure you can relate.

Ahh I see that kinda thing often kept your hands to yourself it’s just another disagreement

[Acameron52]

It happens man. It shows the kind of person you are when you apologized.

[Hooverfb]

Atleast you shook hands on it after. Stuff happens.

[roughneck266]

I wouldn't sweat it too much, Chief. If he shook your hand, I am sure he understands. I been wantin to choke someone ever wince they extended our hitch. But for the grace of god.. lol

Good of you to apologize, if you felt led to. Some folks just push our buttons and sooner or later you're gonna lose it. I've done it. Times I have regretted it and times I didn't. I once shattered a coffee cup against the wall in a meeting, getting everyone's attention and looking like a fool....but I didn't jackslap the guy that wouldn't shut his piehole, so that's good. Another time, I called and asked why my delivery that was scheduled for 8am was late and had the employee of the vendor (I was there biggest customer) tell me that I'd just have to wait and that I wasn't their only customer. I'm not sure what all I said, but I do know that it was recorded and they now use that phone call for training. I apologized on the coffee cup issue. On the other issue, I let that one ride.
