I had a dinner with a guy named Steven Pinker, who had written a book about swearing, poor conduct, and social classes. Look him up.
Making excuses, tolerating, looking the other way, anything other than clear sanctions, just perpetuates it.
I was playing golf with a guy long ago that would get so wound up after a poor shot that it would be 10 minutes of him going off with either clubs, broken or thrown into the lake and just outrageous tantrums over a friendly daft shot.
We were one and done.
Over the years I have laid off many people for poor workplace conduct.
I don’t care about your childhood. Hit the ball. Shoot the clay, and shut up.
