    To clarify story 3: even professors have to cite their sources. That includes students that helped them and wrote portions of their work. A student went behind a professor's back and published the professor's work without their knowledge or consent because they had a falling out. Since the student technically owns that work now, the professor committed plagiarism, which is grounds for blacklisting from any accredited university.

    I was the one who had a meltdown. To keep the story short I worked at a nursing home and was accused of the following:
    -Leaving the building while on the clock (I don't have a car, and my bosses knew that)
    - leaving without telling my coworker (I would always tell her, but she never told me)
    -not cleaning the dining room (she left the dining room filthy 3 times)
    -not cleaning the residents rooms (coworker would not clean something if it didn't look dirty)
    - hiding inside the cleaning closet (again my coworker did that)
    So I grabbed my keys and badge throw them at my boss and walked out while cussing at him.

    With story 1, this hits home.
    The day I came back to work after my first ever psych ward visit, I was very embarrassed. It was for depression and panic attacks due to PTSD. My coworkers were understanding and my manager was hell-bent on making sure my recovery and medicine adjustment was going to be as smooth as possible, given I was a very valuable member of his team.
    Only one person at work wasn’t on board with me having my required medicines at work: an immediate supervisor who was 19 years old and only got the job because her father was a commander on the base I worked/lived on. She was formerly very mean to me because I am non-religious, and everyone knew this and was happy that the office atheist would take all the Sunday shifts to allow folks to go to church. She pretended to be happy to see me back when I arrived back that money morning to put my new meds in my locker. She gave me a hug and tried to discreetly take my bag of medications out of my locker to toss them out while telling me “you need Jesus, not this poison that’ll make you sicker.” I told her this is what I need to avoid s**cide again. She said that was due to my atheism and my heathen ways. I told her this was blatant discrimination and I locked my meds in my locker to tell the manager.
    The manager brought us in to talk. Her reasoning for being “harsh” on me was that “atheists don’t have 1st amendment rights to protect”. My boss pulled up the training slides we all are supposed to do and the history of the Supreme Court case that made it official that atheists indeed had 1st amendment protections. She she then played the race card and said I had no standing because I was white and deserved no rights. He said that doesn’t matter and fired her for racial and religious discrimination plus endangering an employee under her supervision. All because she wouldn’t shut up.

They were both, separately, make my already hellish day worse. The Jesus girl would call me an atheist and a satanist and the druggy would say I was just trying to get attention, and they both made sure to get in my space and touch me a lot, which was a huge trigger at the time. I'm kind of grateful that my blackouts kept me from remembering a lot of the things they said and did.

    I worked at a call center over a decade ago and I witnessed a coworker screaming at the top of her voice at a customer. She was slamming her hand on her desk to punctuate each word and everything. I actually stopped talking to my own customer because I was gaping in shock at this woman. Unfortunately for her, the floor manager was walking the floor during her meltdown and I got right back to work when he made a beeline for her. When I got up for a break an hour later, I walked past her desk and saw that it’d been cleared. That was the last time I saw her.

    I've been through the PhD game, and yeah, it's that bad at times. If you piss off one professor, they'll go out of their way to make your life a living Hell and do everything in their power to stop you from getting your PhD. I had several peers who changed their PhD thesis just because of this problem. I myself had a hiccup when I had to ask for a new chair committee because one member was holding me to an unfair standard, which is a highly disliked accusation, but one that is made often. It probably didn't help that I had started psychoanalyzing that particular chair member and called him out on a lot of blatant hypocrisies. I still got my PhD and he got an investigation, though.

    Ok, this was me with a meltdown, and just so you know, I have started medication and working at a new job after this happened, so stress hasn't gotten to me in a while.
    This happened back when I worked at Walmart in the online pickup department. They were building us a whole room, but at the time of this incident, we were sharing a narrow hallway with the grocery and produce departments. There was this girl who worked there, I'm calling her "S", who nobody liked tbh. She would just stand around and do absolutely nothing but dispense, which would result in her doing nothing for like 60% of her shift. Well one day, we got hit in the evening with a full lot of people trying to get their orders on a short staffed day. We were behind on stacking, or organizing, the orders, so the preppers had some difficulty finding all the totes. We fell so behind that three managers had to come had help get the orders out, the line going back about 20 feet. And guess what S does. She decides to go on her 15 minute break. Her excuse? Her mental illness. I know that that can get really bad sometimes, I deal with anxiety and depression, but she used it so often that I'm fairly certain she was faking it half the time just to get out of work. I flipped when she tried to go on a break at that moment, like full on scream at her, in front of three managers, who are like the general manager team over the entire store. We got into an arguement which she ended with saying that if she doesn't do on break that she will throw up. That's the only reason why I let her go. I think she came back right as the rush ended, but I was avoiding her for the rest of the shift, so I didn't really notice. This one coworker that I actually liked said that it was the highlight of her evening.
    I think what shocked me the most was that S was fired later that week. She tried to claim that she quit because no one cared about her, her friend there (that nobody liked then either but slowly got used to) tried to keep the same story going, but we all knew the truth. Funnily enough, I never got in trouble for that. Me and S just never liked each other there, but contrary to her belief, and to my surprise, like 90% of the department (and some from other departments) were all on my side. She once tried to turn this one coworker against me, not knowing that that coworker is my little sister. Yeah, that's the difference between a lazy teenager who does one job, and the hardworking 22 year old who did just about everything in the department and did it good.

    I've got a story about my own work meltdown. A couple of years ago I worked at an italian fast food place (points if you can guess which) during the summer in between semesters, but I had injured my back prior to coming back for the summer. Well this night it was super packed and my backpain was at a 9/10 when this old man is my next customer. He says he wants alfredo and so I ask him what noodle he wants he just repeats in a pissed off tone that he wants alfredo and I reiterate to him that I need to know what kind of noodle he wants (you might say I should've known he wanted fettucine noodles but we had spaghetti, fettucine, whole wheat spaghetti and ziti pasta and I didn't want to guess wrong and get yelled at). This tall, old bastard leans down, puts his hands on both sides of my register and says "you're just a clerk, don't try to trick me", and I said through gritted teeth "sir, I need to know what noodle you want in order to put in your order" and he just throws his hands up and says "get me someone else to serve me there's clearly something wrong with you". I wish I had said something clever back to him but my back was hurting so bad, I was stressed and all I could get out was a "FUCK YOU!!" as I walked back to get my stuff while the assistant manger was telling me to go home and I ended up sitting in my car crying for a while. I ended up keeping the job because they needed bodies but never went back after that summer.

      I had trouble with my Algebra 2 teacher, she just regurgitated what she had been taught, and she was in her 50s...I couldn't understand one concept and she couldn't do anything but parrot the same information at me and get exasperated that I wasn't understanding. I had to ask my dad, who has a degree in electrical engineering (so he's dang smart and knows his math) and once he was able to figure out what it was he was able to explain it differently and it made sense, so he had a conference with my teacher, yelled at her, called her an idiot who was incapable of actually teaching, and she spent the rest of the semester making my life as miserable as possible. The really fun part? She snapped! The next semester on she started carrying one of those toy squeaky hammers with her, and if a student didn't understand or started to piss her off she'd start whacking them on the head with the squeaky hammer. Apparently emotional abuse wasn't abuse as long as the teacher wasn't cussing and screaming, and physical abuse didn't count if it didn't hurt. Ah...school is fun in the south.

He even teared up towards the end of his meltdown. A girl was hit by some splinters but unhurt. He was able to complete the lesson, but had to lean at the wall afterwards. I'm sure he thought about quitting, but he ended up staying because he was already in his fourties. He is still at the school and around 60 now.

So he calmly went into the supply closet and grabbed a wooden baseball bat and proceeded to smash it down onto a desk across the room with all his might. The desk broke in half and a hush fell over the class. He just said "Now that I have your attention, we can start the lesson" in his usual calm demeanor.

    I remember something vaguely that happened during my high-chool years. It had been a long time ago. Like mid-2000s. Like, if I remember correctly, it was one of the sternest teachers in our private school. One day, I don't really remember the catalyst of this but he started ranting. That made the whole class shut up. He spent the whole rest of the period ranting, everybody silent in the class. It was an amazing period. Did nothing but listened to his rant. And, no, he didn't get fired because the rant was... basically a useful rant but it was still kind of a meltdown.
    Also remember that stern teacher ranting at one kid for not doing his homework. You could watch in awe just thanking the heavens that you weren't the one on the receiving hand. And, during that, if anybody dared speak, he would basically screamed at them.
    And, yeah, during his classes, that was the only point in the day where your ears could take a nap because the class was dead fucking silent but only the teacher speaking.
    Oh, and, btw, that teacher, outside class, was one of the chillest dude ever and really fun to hang around with. When he walked into the classroom, his behavior does a 180° straight.

    Here's a story that happened to me a few years ago, I was a new hire dishwasher for a restaurant chain and at the time I was the only dish washer, so you can imagine the stress I was put under making sure every dish was clean for a large restaurant with just about every dish you can imagine (bar dishes too) I wasn't really known as the guy with an explosive attitude and it takes a lot to get under my skin, at the time a line men (one of the cooks) was "helping me" for several weeks, but the entire time he was ridiculing my work when he's talking shit about me while I work. I got used to it over time but one time he decided to take it a step further, in his words "I'll gladly stomp his head in" referring to me, so I finally had enough. I threw down my dishes, luckily nothing broke thus my anger, and walked over to him. Keep in mind I can't fight, am scrawny, and definitely not very fast, the odds were Jurassicly against me but I didn't care I had enough with it and shouted "OKAY YOU WANT TO STOMP MY HEAD IN FINE DO IT". He obviously was stunned by this and started making excuses like the cameras were watching, we stepped outside where there was no cameras. Then he started saying "you go ahead and throw the first punch" I replied with "nah ah you had the balls to talk shit and threaten me behind my back so grab your balls and do it" long story short I called him out for being a p and destroyed his ego so bad he quit.

    This one will be ironic because it was a slow meltdown on a nuclear submarine.
    A few years before I joined the Navy, there was a Petty Officer First Class in the fleet who decided his job wasn't worth the effort anymore, but was on tenure. He essentially maliciously complied, and did the absolute bare minimum for his department.
    While riding an imaginary bicycle.
    He did this for two years because he wasn't going to re-enlist, as a result of not making the next rank up (Chief Petty Officer). So, for those two years, everywhere he'd go, anything he did, he was riding his imaginary bicycle. Chow, Duty, Deployments, and going to and from home. If this guy had to be anywhere, anytime, he was riding the imaginary bicycle.
    Eventually, his last day in the Navy came, he was given a Medical discharge, and his DD-214. His last active day was essentially also the day his final deployment ended. He rides his imaginary bicycle down the brow (gangplank) to the pier, dismounts, drops the imaginary kickstand and walks down the pier, to the access gate, then to the parking lot, to his car, and drives home. Like a normal person who didn't ride an imaginary bicycle for two straight years.

My senior picked up the phone and the client was just going off. All I could hear from our side was my senior saying her name progressively louder trying to get a word in. Like "Janice....

    I had a meltdown.
    I was at work, called in to work a day.
    Nothing happened *at* work, per se, but there were a couple of things to note:
    I had a math midterm that day.
    I had to leave home at 8 AM to get to my first class in time.
    He asked me at 2, and the earliest I could come in was 6.
    I was the dishwasher for a Mexican food grease trap, and when I came in, there was such a backlog of crap, and such a busy night, that some kitchen stuff, those stainless steel containers, you know the ones, specifically, had gone from piling up on the counter and cart, to piling up *under the sink*.
    I saw a 10:00 PM clock out time at all this at the earliest. I couldn’t handle it. I asked for my most recent check, clocked out, and when the boss texted me asking what was going on, I told him I quit.
    He called me and I hung up.
    But, this does end for the better. He called me again 10 minutes later, when my anger had turned to uncontrollable sobs in the shower. I rescinded my quitting and was given the next weekend off to decompress.

    I got a story like this. Not a meltdown from an employee in a high status or anything like that. Didn’t even work there. But we went to a jimmy mac’s steak restaurant one time, sat down and waited about 3ish minutes before anyone came. When they did our waitress was literally in tears. Because the last 3 tables she was given the people were screaming shit at HER because the kitchen staff was fucking up the food bad. Oh yeah speaking of them. One of the members in out group was very picky in his steaks. ( in the sense that every other steak place likes to fuck up his orders ) he gets his food taken back and given a new one 3 times and it wasn’t right ANY of those times. Then they tell us their stupid ass system off cooking where they stick every steak on the same cooker and leave all of them there and take them all of at the same time… or just forget entirely. We got refunded but it’s safe to say we won’t be going to jimmy mac’s again. ( best of the city they said. )

    I had a time working in an ice cafe which was also invested in catering (real meals, benches to sit on etc.). I was usually the caterer but also helped out at other departments when nothing had to be delivered, packed, or be taken back. I had my last day of work there as I was about to move to a new city to study at university the next day. We had a whole family party organised plus I had to finish up in order to move out the next morning. I told everyone of it. Already saying goodbyes etc. So then there was this order which I had to deliver, but somebody forgot to put the forks in it. When I called the back the kitchen and told them they said they had none to spare and that I should take some from the Cafe. So I did and all was fine, but that day we had an unsusal amount of costumers and I stayed an hour longer, after one of my coworkers repeatedly asked for my help and I was like, ok I will do this then leave, after the third time I literally said to her ok this is the last thing, but then I really have to go. Suddenly another coworker shows up and tries to order me around to do other stuff and that I have to start washing dishes as I am the reason they had no forks anymore. I looked at my other coworker and then decided, nope I am not going to help anymore I already made myself clear. The second coworker then completely lost it started cursing at me saying how bad of a person I am and I followed her (we were always on decent terms with each other before) through all the costumers to the back of the cafe where I had my car parked. And (in hind sight not the smartest) argue with her. She then stepped it up by completely screaming at me in the parking lot, again wishing me to hell and running away whilst crying onto the way to the kitchen (which was situated at the back). I‘ve got quite some stares of my former coworkers. As I was tight on time though I decided to just leave and that was the last experience I had at a workingplace that I actually enjoyed working on.

He would keep lecturing as he grabbed the extinguisher & walked over to your desk. So, if you were just kind of sleeping, you wouldn't realize what he was doing. Then he'd set it off right by your ear.

    I have a story. I was working at McDonald's a few years ago as a Crew Trainer/maintenence/truck receiver, there were some nights I was called in to work overnight. One night, I had expressed that I'm not doing well mentally and would like if they asked someone else tonight, they replied with "if you don't come in we will take it as you don't want your position anymore and give it to someone else. So I sucked it up even though my mental health was not okay. For clarification, I had just recently lost 2 close family members and 3 long term friends, and never took time off to mourn properly. Later on in the night the shift leader whom of which I had many years of experience on, she starts screaming at me for being lazy eventhough she's been in the lobby on her phone for the past 7.5 hours, so I ended up freaking out, hysterically crying, and walking out. Later on, my favorite boss called me asking for Mt side of the story because, and I quote "her story didn't sound right". So I explained, she looks at me like, "you're kidding, that didn't actually happen??!!!" And the shift leader happened yo walk around the corner at that time and overhear me explaining what happened, she tries to interrupt me, my favorite boss looked at her, told her that if she interrupts again she will get her 3rd write up, meaning she would get fired. It wasn't the first time this has happened. Later on, she tried to retaliate by writing me up for insubordination, so I contacted HR and she ended up getting fired on the spot in a heat of rage from the owner. To this day, i am still so proud of myself for doing what I did. I wasn't going to say anything at first, but then I broke down and that's just not okay.
    PS. I've learned before then how to control my emotions, it was months and months of verbal and mental abuse from her.

    Story from me: I was in the middle of a busy period on shift at the local fast fashion chain store. My supervisor and I didn't get along, idk why but she had just taken a sudden dislike to me about 3 months into my employment there. I had told them that I was seeking an autism assessment and showed them the paperwork so they had it on file. (Whole other story about that day!)
    This particular day, my body decided to give me all the signs of a panic attack for no reason and I start panicking about my body giving me random signs and it turns into a full blown panic attack. I'm hyperventilating and struggling to breathe. I can't see a thing because everything is blurry. Every micro sound sounds like it's being turned up to 11 on the world's biggest amplifier. So I did the responsible thing and removed myself to a dark room away from customers and call my dad to calm me down. Supervisor walks in, complains that I'm crying, complains that I'm not on shop floor, complains that I'm on my phone and threatened to take it. I still can't breathe properly at this point and don't have the strength to stand now that I'm sitting down. She threatened to tell the manager and get me fired for having a panic attack. She called me childish, pathetic, lazy and said I just wanted to get out of working and make her look bad.
    Needless to say, I didn't renew my contract with them. F*ck you, matalan.

    I had a controlled meltdown.
    I was working the overnight shift at a convenience store. Due to the Winter holiday season the overnight shift wasn't on schedule for a few days so this screwed up the natural flow of the schedule.
    The assistant manager of the store (who got the job because her mother was a long time manager within the company) did her best to make the schedule but ultimately ended up screwing it up the next week because of the awkward holiday week. No biggie, mistakes happen. So I go to her nicely and say, "hey for next week can you set the schedule back like it was before the holidays?" She says yes, the schedule goes back to normal for a week.
    The week after, it's the same exact messed up schedule. So I go to her again a bit more sternly, "hey, these days don't work for me, there are only three of us on the overnight shift and the other guy I work with wants the schedule back the old way too. You don't need to change anything, just copy and paste the week before, you're making needless work for yourself." She didn't like this which I know because she was staring at me like I murdered her pet cat, but the schedule was back to normal.
    Until she would change it to the schedule no one wanted one last time. I was fed up at this point so instead of speaking to her one-on-one as I had, I wrote a long note calling her out the same way I did personally while subtly calling her stupid. I posted the note in the tiny office over the overnight portion of the schedule on her day off so people of all shifts would see the note before she got a chance to.
    When I come in for my next shift she's pissed off at me in the middle of the store saying "what you did with that note was unacceptable! We're gonna have a discussion in the office." Mind you, customers are all around the store, looking at both of us. So I decide, nah, we're not doing that. I say "no, what you've been doing is unacceptable. How hard is it to not touch a schedule?! Literally all you have to do is nothing, and you can't even do that right! Consider this my two weeks notice because I'm not gonna work under someone unstable enough to yell at their employee in the middle of the store and then expect me to go to the office like this is middle-school." The color of anger and shame on her face matched the dark red dyed hair she was so proud of and I walked away from her to clock in and get my register counted.
    A couple of the other shift leaders would talk to me like actual people so I didn't officially put my two weeks in for another month. The assistant manager was on her best behaviour when we were forced to interact during the shift swaps but she'd ultimately let her built-up frustration of losing to me verbally slip and she made some comments at my expense that got back to me. I texted the main manager "this is my official two weeks notice, no other way around it." I would then text him again after my shift ended that I officially quit.
    I'm someone who believes in signs and that night a ceiling tile fell and water was dripping in multiple spots because a large amount of snow was melting on the roof of the building. I can remember scanning the store while I was at the register at like 3am and just thinking "this shits crumbling all around me, just gonna ride out the rest of this shift."
    Funnily enough, both the manager and assistant manager would get transferred and demoted not long after I left. I like to imagine the way I exited and the endorsements I got from the shift leaders was used as an example of how terrible bosses ruin incredible employees.

    12:50 : same for me, I loved my 7th grade English teacher (I'm in an European country and we learn English as a second language), she was awesome and we could speak between us as long as it was in English. But one student kept speaking our main language, she kept asking him to tune it off during the class or switch to English, he continued every single class.
    One day, she asked him again "Please, Mr [name], in my classroom you can speak English only, as much as you want." And he retorted (in our language) "Yo miss, I don't want to speak English, it's useless and you suck at teaching."
    SHE. FREAKING. SNAPPED.
    The teacher slammed the door open, lifted his desk (he hadn't gotten anything out his bag), smashed it on the ground outside the classroom in front of the door in direction of the whiteboard, took him by the collar and lifted him until he tiptoed fast to the table, slammed the chair behind the desk, his bag on the table and screamed at him from the top of her lungs to "SHUT THE F*CK UP AND YOU'LL F*CKING LEARN ENGLISH, YOU WORM FILLED MEATLOAF!"

    In middle school we had a sub that had a melt down and at the end of the day never came back. I was in 6th grade when everything STARTED and this was a collaboration with my class and the class a year above us. The lady was subbing for Language Arts and everyone kind of hated her because she'd always find something to bitch about and favored students and classes. At the time I was still working on over coming a speech impediment (I just couldn't make the r sound well at that point) and occasionally my teacher would have me read with a PVC phone to hear myself and correct it (no clue how that was supposed to help, but it didn't). This sub HATED the book Wocket in my Pocket, so when she was subbing long term the 7th graders decided to take turns sitting by the teacher's desk during SSR using the phone to read out loud. One day they asked me to do it, and I did. She got on me about it and I told her "Miss [teacher's name] wants me to use the phone every [week day it was] to work on my pwonunciation." And she told me I should already be able to speak properly and that I was faking. A few kids stepped in and got mad at her for that because most of them had known me since I was a toddler and they knew Rs were hard for me.
    At one point she went on a rant of some kind with the 7th graders that got pretty not school appropriate. She made a comment about it being good there weren't cameras in classrooms and one kids said "actually there are" and the whole class spent the rest of the period faking waving to cameras. They came in during recess and recorded it on a kid's iPod and the next day showed it to her. She started panicking and left for the rest of the day and she never subbed the rest of the year.
    My 7th grade year the school decided to mix 7th and 8th graders for Language Arts, I don't know why, but it was a small school and there were only 8 8th graders.
    Anyway our teacher had to be gone for a couple days and that sub was called in because all other subs in the area were unavailable according to her. I don't know why or how but it was like the classes collectively decided to screw with her. I was one of the kids that always tried to stay quiet and follow rules at that point, and I'd gotten pretty good with the R sound. We were supposed to be working on our group projects and it was crazy. It's a bit of a blur as it was about 9 years ago, but one of the kids in my class who used to piss me off a lot decided to come over and bother me and my group until I snapped and yelled at him to leave me alone and stop being stupid. THAT was what made this teacher snap. Me saying stupid. She got little kid angry, stomping her feet with her fists balled up by her sides, and screamed "SHUT UP! SHUT UP! SHUT UP!" Until everyone stopped what they were doing and she stormed out of the room and left the school. The principal had to have different teachers fill in as subs for the rest of the day and the next. Our teacher had apparently asked for that lady to not sub and they still put her in. The worst thing that happened was the principal talking to us and telling us she was ashamed.

The trip had been long and hellish, with a four hour delay in lax due to weather, my seat being cramped because I switched to a window seat (in mine and the other persons defense, they were an elderly couple and he walked with a cane. I felt like an ass if he had to shuffle into the window seat), and by the end, my luggage was lost. All my belongings were in three suitcases cause I was moving. I was hungry, tired, and just wanted to get home when I report my luggage missing and this very nice lady asks what address should it be sent to. Thats when it hits me, I don’t have my parents address, phone number, my phone doesn’t work outside the us, and I have no money. I’m suddenly not even sure that my dad is still hear to pick me up because of all the delays. So I’m standing there 19 years old, having flown solo for the first time ever, and just break down into a sobbing mess.
    Luckily my dad was there when I came out but it made me break down again as I cried about my stuff, as if this shit is the most important I-can’t-live-without-it stuff in the world.

He had a teaching approach where he would shoot the shit, make jokes, etc. One day he made a history joke if I remember correctly and everyone started cracking up. When the laughter was dying down one kid, Alex, couldn’t stop laughing. The teacher walked behind the desks to get to his (three desks away from the door), grabbed him by the back of his hair, and just pounded Alex’s head down on the desk twice. Alex fell to the floor and the teacher then literally kicked him out of the door. We were all in a stunned silence. The teacher just resumed the lesson.

She had some issues with her mental health and had been declining for a while before this. She had a mental breakdown, started screaming and crying, broke a bunch of computers and reportedly was screaming “this place is the portal to hell” repeatedly. Obviously she was fired.

    i work for a large retail chain. I once had a mental breakdown on my lunch break and write "kill me" on the bathroom wall with my blood. I cleaned it up before I left, but you could probably still see it with a blacklight under the sink.

    I was having a really horrible day. Normally, I’m pretty good at keeping my personal life separate from my cashier work, but I had gotten some heartbreaking news only a couple hours before my shift started. I was able to keep it together for most of my shift, but only an hour or two before the end, it just hit me all at once. I kept it together long enough to turn off my register light, help the last customer, and run upstairs to the employee bathroom and cry for half an hour. Thankfully, my boss was super understanding and didn’t ask questions

    My brother works at a place I will call "the office." So one day, he was working and there was some people messing about, throwing paper balls around, as my brother continued on the computer. A paper ball hits a quiet girl who was also working, on the head. She stood up, screamed, then stormed to the boss in another room. My brother couldn't hear the conversation much but he didn't have to because in a random burst the girl screams "IT'S NOT FAIR!" and then a lot of gibberish and crying. She took 3 days off in a row, came back, got nudged by accident then had a mental breakdown and quit. She got bullied at school and had experienced these kind of things before so kinda PTSD, but that was quite the story from my brother.

    My chemistry teacher in high school started to crack during my semester in her class. She was really sweet and the girls really liked her and weren't trying to make fun of her, but she had one of those strong northeast accents, Maine or something, so if a word ended with a hard A sound she'd pronounce it with an -er sound. The popular girls in class wanted her to pronounce things because they thought her accent was cute, but they'd giggle, and after a certain amount of that, plus our class just being kinda unruly, occasionally she'd snap and yell, "HEY! ..." Then loudly vent about us misbehaving or not paying attention, etc. The next semester admin decided to have her ease up and teach Physical Science to freshman thinking that would be a bit easier on her...they forgot that younger kids are even more obnoxious and unruly than ones two yrs older and in the advanced placement class. She freaked out, threw a whiteboard eraser or marker and hit a kid in the face (he had a bloody nose and had to go to the doctor), then started absolutely *screaming* at her whole class so loudly that you could hear her outside the building. They decided she needed a real break after that and she went on administrative leave. I don't know what happened to her after that though.
    I've witnessed a couple of teacher meltdowns. One kid got hit in the head across the lunchroom with one of those baseball hard red delicious apples they serve, He had a helluva lump! Again in middle school a whiteboard marker escaped its cap during a heated classroom discussion and smack a kid in the face (total accident, just funny to share). I didn't do my math homework in 7th grade, didn't need to, and my teacher used every opportunity she could to make me work extra, work hard, or yell at me. She retired the same year as my mom (school nurse) and she STILL had a grudge about that homework, like nearly 20 years later, still hadn't given it up.

    I remember in my 10th grade High School (Canada woo), my English Teacher was 30 minutes late. We as a rowdy bunch of teenagers were just talking amongst ourselves, when suddenly he BURSTS into the room, shouts at the top of his longs two simple words. "SIT DOWN." The whole class, myself included, never moved so fast in their life, sat in their chairs, stood up back straight, fingers locked and folded with one another on the tables before he storms out of the class wordlessly. We sat in utter silence for about 5 minutes before the gossiping started back up. We didn't have English that day and the teacher didn't return until the next day. We still to this day don't know what was wrong with him but he was a much more agreeable person for the rest of the year. My guess he got a stern talking to by someone in a more qualified position.

    I can feel the frustration of Story 2. Getting reprimanded for not reaching a requirement you were never told about or doing something you were never told not to do in a particular workplace is a nightmare. And management acts like you're stupid when they're the one's failing in that situation.

    French teacher meltdown: I'll admit we weren't the greatest 6th graders but one group of kids really got under her skin. One day, she got the VP to listen in on the class through the PA system (badly disguised "oops, wrong room, sorry" and a fake hang up sound). That one group didn't care and kept being little shits. Out of nowhere, the teacher dropped her stuff, turned to us and yelled "YOU'RE ALL RETARDS!" loud enough for other classes to hear. After a short silence, the VP listening in said "Mrs.W, please come down to the office, now." We never saw her again after that.

    I had 2 teachers in school, one had taught the other many years earlier. Anyway, in one teachers classroom a student had fallen asleep in lesson. This teacher very quietly walked up to the students desk and yelled at him, slamming his hands down on the desk. The student shot up off his desk and fell over backwards in his chair, then the desk broke and fell on him. I mean the wood literally bounced up of the metal it was screwed to, then snapped into 2 pieces.
    The other teacher (one time student of the first) had 2 incidents with the same boy 3 weeks apart. The first incident the boy just wouldn't stop talking in class so the teacher walked over and threw the desk to the side to get in the boys face. Desk flipped over in the air, hit the wall and broke. 3 weeks later same student still wouldn't shut up. Teacher yelled for him to get out of the classroom so loud we heard him on the other end of the school(not the biggest of schools) . Student got up and very slowly made his way to the door chatting to his friends non stop. Teacher got up and started coming towards the student. Student suddenly moved very fast as the teacher chased him out of the door and slammed the door behind him. The door slammed shut, broke the handle mechanism, then bounced off of its hinges and fell, almost hitting the teacher as he walked back to his desk.

    A chemistry teacher broke down because no one would shut up. needless to say the period class got a lecture and the bad kids got detention. (the class the got introuble was period 3 I was in period 1)
    The teacher was so upset when she was giving out the detentions (for the dumbest of reasons) she had a smile
    I gave her the name Miss. Detention
    some of the kids did deserve the detention I will say that

      If you still talk to her, why not suggest that you make a bet with the students.
      If they stay quiet throughout the lesson, they can choose her clothes for a week (as long as it goes with school rules).
      If anyone fails, the fails give her a nickel or a penny.

    I've seen a less dramatical case of this during one of my classes at university. My major is computer science and I took a course on software engineering (basically stuff about how to design a large program and lead a team of programmers), where the lecturer was super proud and hyped to have secured a guest lecture by a law professor about copyright law. The foreign students were told that they didn't need to show up as it was about Czech law so it wouldn't be useful for them. Well instead nobody showed up except me. As you can imagine the lecturer was super pissed and almost started screaming, then he realized that he was about to scream at the only student who showed up and apologised to me.
    The guest professor proceeded to give me a pretty damn interesting lecture about copyright law and as I was the only student present I was able to ask about anything I found interesting and over all it was a very interesting experience.
    And then a few weeks later when the time came for exams, the teacher got his revenge. He made like a third of the entire exam about copyright, so everybody except me and the foreigners had to study damn hard to pass and got relatively bad grades.

    I have had trauma in the past, so when I returned from my mail route to the post office to wrap up there was a man that had a short, but stocky build and was military. Before anyone gets mad at me for dissing on the military, my biological father was in the military and I admire the general people who decide to serve the country. Unfortunately he was one of the main sources of the trauma. The man (whose physique resembled my biological father’s) was less than ten feet away from me, trying to ask another employee a question. I fled inside the warehouse and tried to calm down only to have a panic attack less than five minutes later. Luckily, I was already inside the cage and there weren’t a lot of people around but I was dizzy, feeling faint, and thought I was at risk of dying right there. A few months later, I was diagnosed with PTSD.

    I can remember a few meltdowns that occurred in my workplace.
    I wouldn’t necessarily call this one a meltdown, but given what my boss at the time was up to (excessive drinking and quite possibly drugs), I’d say it came pretty damn close.
    I work in a shipyard, and my boss (we’ll call him Moron McDumbass) gave my co-worker and I a job where we had to take inventory of a temporary exhaust manifold. But the only thing he gave us was the isometric drawing of the manifold (a 3d drawing of the manifold). We told him that in order to take inventory, we needed the parts list. But that idiot of a boss said “oh, you don’t need that” and sauntered off. My co-worker and I looked at each other, and just went to the planner to get the rest of the plan, and we were able to get the job done.
    Apparently, when Moron McDumbass found out, he was MAD. He told us, and I quote, “you weren’t supposed to go to the planner”.
    Somehow, that moron became a general foreman.
    Another story, which I can indeed say is a meltdown. This one, I wasn’t present for. But I did hear about it from coworkers. We were in a training class for most of the day, and most of my coworkers left their hard hats in their lockers (I brought mine). After class, my coworkers went to get their hard hats, when the general foreman (not Moron McDumbass, but he was present) just WENT OFF, not letting my coworkers get a word in edgewise. I ran into the two bosses, and the head honcho of my department sternly asked where I was going. SO glad I’m not in that department anymore.

    I've never experienced them, mainly because my absence causes them, but there have been several meltdown-walkouts. The problem is that the owner has to help cover the office when one of us is off and she is a narcisistic idiot with 0 respect for her staff who thinks what she is working on is more important and jumps on every opportunity to countermand what any of her minions say to show off to customers that she is the boss. Oh and she delights in shouting at you but only infront of customers or at least as many other staff as possible.
    When I first joined the company there was the owner's DIL as the office manager, a woman working part time and me. Turns out I was being trained to take over DIL's non-managerial tasks and she left after a few months. The first week's holiday I had after that; I made it to Wednesday before the owner rang asking if I could come in to work the last two days of the week because the part timer had had a meltdown and walked out. I got promoted to office supervisor and we hired someone else, everything was fine for a bit, but then I had a week's break, the new girl managed half a day before breaking down in tears and running out, never to return.
    Next guy we hired I tried to take the rescheduled holiday days off, he got into a massive row with the owner and got fired for speaking to her like that (not sure when the row was, but apparently she "tolerated" him until Friday so she wouldn't have to call me in). She spent the next few weeks ranting about how she is perfectly entitled to discipline her staff and giw some people just didn't know how to take criticisms.
    We had two more girls come in, do great then have to work with the owner when I was off and both quit after fun meltdowns. My current assistant is an incompetent idiot with 0 computer literacy or respect for any of my systems or processes, but she's friends with the owner and so she's lasted a fair bid, all while releaving me of almost 0% of my workload.

    I was waiting in line at the pym test kitchen in Disneyland California adventure, I was on my phone and not paying much attention when I heard one of the employees at the front who was taking orders shouting that “I know I’m an idiot I know I am too stupid to talk to you”, after the shouting he began crying on the floor. Then his manager arived and helped take him out and calm him down. After he was taken out his manager took over for him. Apparently one customer was very rude and angry and must have triggered some sort of trauma the Poor employee had, even after his manager took over for him the customer was still being an asshole and even made the calm and collected manager angry at the customer.

So I stood up, screamed at my manager that if they didn’t get a tech in, I expected her fat bossy ass up on a ladder to fix it herself by the next shift I had, or I was calling the regional manager and quitting on the spot.
    The light is now fixed.

    I've worked very hard not to have a meltdown in my classroom, because students would cherish memory of that victory for years. For some students, being calm and rational is a sign of weakness. If I'm not jumping up and down, swearing like a cartoon character, then I must not "really mean it". These students come from homes where respect is given to those with the loudest voice, who can hit the hardest, and who can show the most anger. Those students only listen to to teachers who scream at them. Everyone else is simply ignored. I've had to fake meltdowns with those students, then calmly say, "Did you hear me now? Oh, good! Shall we continue with the lesson?"
