Share your anger management techniques

For reasons not relevant to this thread, work people have been getting on my nerves big time lately. I'm about ready to snap and go explatives on them or worse. This will surely hurt my position here, so I am in urgent need of possible ways to deal with this. I try to mantra "go with the flow, dude" and "this ain't your company, just do what you're told" but it is not helping too much. The building and family helps when I'm out of the office, but while I'm here ...urrrrgh.

Desperately seeking help.

Starting threads about how pissed off you are on TB, seems to work wonders

I have a "ball of whacks" which is a bunch of magnetized thingies that I can make into stuff or smash....you could also photoshop your co-workers in all sorts of stress relieving ways.

In my youth I would chain smoke and I destroyed my lungs then leanred how to internalize and that nearly killed me. Selective hearing just might be the way to go.
