"I'm unhappy with my life so I'm going to make other people unhappy too."

How about these people do something with their incredibly valuable short lives other than being miserable? Unless you're in chronic pain of some kind, being alive is a gift. It's a treasure. Every moment is precious.

Because they are stuck doing a stressful job with probably low pay or poor hours to make ends meet?

I think we can all agree this is something completely different.

I'd rather have my packages broken than my local carrier going postal. I can always get a replacement from the company if my package is busted up.

Research shows that relieving aggression like that or yelling actually increases it over time.

That’s not nessisarily relevant. If you flip the fuck out 5 days in your life it’s not going to escalate much, but it might prevent a postal episode.

That said if it’s a weekly habit that’s another story.
