Hear me out... It's okay to just want to be mad, but you should acknowledge that you just want to be mad and let people know that upfront. The conversation will be much more productive for all parties involved.

We all need to be better communicators, ask up front do you want it solved or you just need to be mad. Maybe questionnaires to fill out π
