How Can a Workplace Newcomer Calm Their Boss's Temper in One Sentence?

User Submission: During the morning meeting, a newly hired Gen Z employee made a small oversight and was yelled at by their boss, who pounded the table in front of the entire department.

Everyone in the office lowered their heads, and no one dared to speak—after all, they'd seen this kind of scene too many times before.

Unexpectedly, the employee closed their notebook, looked up at their boss, and spoke with a remarkably steady tone: "I'll fix this mistake right now.

But the way you're acting right now doesn't look like solving a problem—it looks more like venting your emotions.

If this is how we work here, then I probably really can't stay."

The boss opened their mouth but couldn't say a word for a long time.
