I have to deal with a lot of aggression at work. Like, on a daily basis there is shouting, threats and sometimes fights or police involvement.

Today I had a guy who exploded in an instance just because a female coworkers asked me something while I was busy with his questions. Told her he wouldn’t tolerate a women lecturing him (she wasn’t) and called her the Devil for some fucking reason. Told him he could kindly fuck off. Normally I can see the thought process leading up to a rage fit but this was just 0-100 in less than a second.

It’s sad but you get used to it. A day without aggression gets labeled as a good day these days, which is absurd of course.

And my job is to help people even. I’m not even influencing them in any bad way whatsoever. But still there is aggression.

I just hope to one day experience a world in which all of this is not necessary anymore.
