.. is your fuse?
I've been told that I've calmed down quite a bit over the years. I used to lose my temper at the simplest of things. I don't tend to let things get to me nowadays. For example, the wife backed into someone the other day and when she told me, I just said "As long as you are ok". I then left her to deal with the paper work etc. A few years ago I would have flipped and then taken control. I fact one day, she was so frightened to tell me, she went to her mums for the day/evening. The first I heard was when the guy called for the insurance details
I've never been violent, just had a bad temper.
I still have my limits though. I loose it at work with some people when the don't listen or don't do something they have been asked to do.
So I guess my fuse is a lot longer than it used to be.
