Bash back
When people get angry with me, I don’t know how to react. More to the point, I don’t react in a conscious way. I usually focus on trying to pour oil on the water, calming them down, no matter what the cost to their or my integrity. What I have almost never done is gotten angry in return. Sometimes that comes later, but it’s often too late. It often seems rather artificial to then call somebody up and let them know that I am now angry.
No startling insight into how this relates to my time as an undergrad.
