Nah. Hard disagree. If you're doing something stupid and are told politely several times to stop doing it but then continue doing it? Especially when your actions are wasting thousands of dollars and putting people at risk due to the environment you're in? You deserve to be yelled at.
If you believe your own personal decision gets to trump the financial and literal health of someone when everyone had to make extreme sacrifices to be able to do this and you just didn't want to? You deserve to be yelled at.
Politeness has its limit.
Or, you know, you handle it like a healthy, well adjusted, adult with anger management skills. That’s also an option.
If someone can’t handle mistakes being made without screaming, they have no business being in management and need to spend a little more time in therapy.
You're assuming they haven't tried that road. Again and again and again.
Some people need the volume turned up to get it
Then they aren’t a good fit for the position. They need to be moved somewhere they are a better fit or terminated
As I said in another response, not only is yelling a great way to make the workplace hostile for everyone in the general vicinity but it’s also not a particularly effective way to deal with conflict
There are countless better methods to deal with a problem.
You're 10-ply, bud.
