Anger Triggers

Everyone no matter how nice you are has an angry side to them. I try to be a very nice person but there are some things that make me angry. However when I am angry I believe I am good at contolling my anger. Sometimes little stupid things can make me angry. One thing that makes me angry is getting a bad grade on a test and not understanding what I am learning. Testing in high school can be difficult. Learning many new different things in several different classes can get very frustrtating at times too. Basic credits to go to college include everyone to take four different classes;English, HIstory, Science, and Math. Therefore learning all of these subjects have put many techniques, equations, facts and history in students brains. When taking tests and haveing to learn all new things every week makes it hard for some students to keep their grades up in everyclass. When I recieve a bad grade lower then a 75 I get very angry because I feel like I could of done better. Also being as it is my senior year it is a very busy year with college stuff working and maintaing my grades.
When people talk about me it makes me mad. It's not a nice thing espically when your friends do it. Yes everyone does it including myself but I have tried to learn from my mistakes by avoiding talking about people and hearing about it as much as possible. It stinks to hear about it espically from friends. When people that don't know you talk about you it usually means that they have nothing better to do.
Reckless drivers should stay off of the road. Driving is a right that many people get a chance to experience. When driving you are basically in control of a big, dangerous, expensive machine. When people take advantage of their ability behind the wheel it makes me very nervous and angry. It puts me in danger and most of the time when someone is carlessly driving they are the ones flipping you off because they are in a rush or just being reckless.
My job is also another thing that makes me angry. Obviously I have to contol my anger because I am a waitress and I can not talk back to the customers or be rude in anyway. It annoys me when they complain to me when something is wrong with their food espically because I do anything thing i can to satistfy them with something else like give them a refund or a different entree plus and be xtra nice about it. The thing that annoys me the most at my job is having to serve people everytime i work mean or nice.
I am pretty good at controlling my anger and I do not usually show it towards other people. However it has happened occassionally. I don't really have any strategies for people who are angry because I never really needed them. Im sure if your an uncontrolable angry person time to yourself to calm down could help out. Also trying to talk out or solve you problems with someone else before getting out of control. If people get angry often and have many sudden outburst maybe they are stressed out. Many things mae me angry each and everyday but I do the best I can control it. On the otherhand I guess we could call thoose people who can not control their anger beligerent.
