Angry Coworker

by Lesley
(Aurora)

As a server in a busy restaurant, I am trying to help the manager find an effective solution to a good cook's anger management issues so that he does not have to lose his job.

He recently lost control, throwing a plateful of food across the passbar, and has become increasingly difficult to work with. If I were in charge, I would offer him a choice between a week off to consider his career options and an anger management class, but before I make this suggestion to the manager, I would like to find a free anger management class to make the suggestion valid.

Unfortunately, all of the classes are extremely expensive, and everyone involved, including the restaurant, is on a tight budget.

It would be a simple thing to replace him, but most of the time he is likeable, and as I said earlier, a good cook. Is there anything that I can suggest? Is there an intervention that I can offer that would benefit all involved?
