In the automotive world, managers scream.
Directors slam tables.
Customers speak to you like you're nothing.
The first time it happened, I was shocked.
Afraid.
I went home replaying it for hours.

Their tone is information about them, not a verdict about you.
A screaming customer is a stressed customer.
Behind the aggression is fear of missing a deadline, of looking bad to their boss.
Once you see that, you stop reacting and start solving.
Resilience isn't a thick skin. It's clear eyes.
When was the last time someone's bad mood threw off your whole day?
