Anger Management: There's an Upside to Seeing Red at Work

Work can be frustrating and enraging at times, but emotional outbursts are generally off limits.

Venting may clear the air or have a catalytic impact, signalling a matter of importance. It could even be a necessary "evil", just part of the job. But before letting fly, be mindful that things may turn sour if it's out of control – and the cause of the outrage will affect how it's perceived.
