(+) Yeah! (+)

Yelling at a child.

You?

Lol nothing

IT guy got pissed at me once for missing a meeting with him even though I asked him hours in advance to confirm my proposed time before I drove 20 miles for it and he didn't at all, but that's it

not recently, but my old supervisor not only threatened to fire but also prosecute a group of us for "unauthorized disclosure" or something because one of us in the project sent some mail to the wrong client. through the grapevine I heard she took antidepressants so that blowup probably had something to do with it.

meh that was years ago...

Getting screamed at by a racist over the phone blaming a "Chinese" (Filipino) cashier over a discrepancy less than a dollar. I put him on hold and told the new manager "we've got a charmer on the phone". The new manager pulled me into the office and berated me for disrespecting customers.

Apparently unblinding a clinical trial. When clinical trial doctors report an error in their virtual system my company runs, they call us to fix these issues. One blinded study's issue was resolved, and I reached out to the requestor to tell them.

Issue is, somehow, someway the person who did the request misread something, and did a whole different change in the system. Yes, we peer review, but I peer reviewed the change HE did, and didn't look back at the original request to see where he misinterpretted it. A few days later, my supervisor pulls both of us into a slack call. She doesn't yell at us, but was clearly disappointed.
