This goes way back. You've got rage inside you and you displace it onto minor things which seem like big things at the time. Your rage is looking for some rationale to let it out.
Well, here's the verdict.....
For her, write-up for speaking in an unprofessional, disrespectful manner.
For me, likewise, with 2-day suspension for fist gesture, mandatory anger-management/sensitivity training. Apologies flew all over the room. Our boss, our boss' boss, us two "combatants" all in attendance. I was sternly told, "You're getting off easy...next time, walk away if you feel your heat rising! Blow a gasket, blow a job."
I'm glad you didn't lose your job, Rick. However, I hope you take the anger management training seriously and learn how to control your temper. Otherwise, it could eventually be your undoing.
Good luck to you.

The 2-day thing is his suspension. I suspect the anger management training will be more of an ongoing thing.
Am I correct, OP?

you got ska-rewd...why, back in the good old days, we would have been free to smite the Phillistine
next time forget the fist, pick up a letter opener and start opening your mail at a feverish pace.

You are lucky! Let this serve as a learning moment and keep your temper under control. People who realize they have a bad temper are the ones who really need to work on it not getting out of control.

You've been told numerous times on C-D to pipe down and get anger management treatment. I'm glad this escalated so you have to.
I got into a heated argument with a coworker. Our supervisor was there. Now, this coworker is kind of stupid, doesn't know her job, but I'm not going into details. Anyway, this was a discussion about something so trivial, but she just didn't want to listen and kept talking over me. Our voices got loud (especially mine - hate to admit, but I've got a temper!) and at one point I brought my hand up into a fist. Supervisor then began yelling at me, insinuating that I was threatening! I was mad, but not to where I'd resort to striking.
Yeah, no kidding. Can't imagine such a scene in a professional setting. Get some help with your anger management. Supervisor yelling at you is inappropriate as well. Your workplace sounds like a zoo.
