I feel realy guilty but am i a bad person?

i work as a security guard at a locan shopping centre... two young guys were hanging around outside smoking i asked them to leave and they said they were waiting for there parents so i continued on with what i was doing.... an hour later they were still there.. when i approached them the second time one of the teens said something that realy offended me so i punched him in the face..... obviously i was fired on the spot.... i feel realy guilty for hitting him but i was having a bad day.... and i feel that i was wrongfully sacked as i snapped having alot on my mind... i think i should be given a second chance??????

You should definitely not be given a second chance. You were out of order and lucky you didn't get arrested.

I often have bad days but I don't go around punching people as a result.

i think you should be fired. glad you did not have gun. u need anger management sessions...and a new profession

If you hit someone whilst at work the only outcome is gross misconduct - fired.

I do though appreciate that you snapped - you might feel guilty but I reckon the lad is having a good laugh about you being fired.

You were unable to keep control of yourself in a typically annoying situation and was sacked for not being able to remain controlled . I am sure you will do better in another Role.

No chance, people get pissed off every day, but we don't all go around hitting people. Think you need to learn a little self control.

Not a bad person, just a man in the wrong job. You are probably quite a tall, well built person and you don't say how young these teenagers were. Quite honestly, you're lucky you're not being prosecuted for assault. We all do things we regret from time to time and have to learn not to take it out on other people just because we are having a hard day. You could try appealing to management and explaining that you were badly provoked, but it might be better to seek employment elsewhere. I hope that you find something soon.

Weather or not you can justify your actions does not change the facts that you broke the rules of your employer when you did so. I suggest find a job that better suits your personality.

We all have bad days, however your reaction was uncalled for. Your bosses were right to sack you.

Whilst I have empathy with your situation I think you need to address your anger issues. If anyone had punched your or one of your children in a similar fashion you would rightly expect the employer to take immediate, drastic action. Having a bad day, week or life is no excuse for physical violence. I think that you should avoid jobs where you may come into contact with any other human being in a confrontational situation, until you have mastered your anger.

In most cases people deserve a second chance..........but with violance involved i think not, sorry.
No matter how hard things get at work or home we have to try our hardest not to take them out on others. Try and find another way of letting of steam, say a sport that you like.
All you can do now is what another person said in there answer is, to write a letter of appology to your boss and perhaps he may give you a 2nd chance, if you record of work has been clean till now i dont see why not.
Also this day and age you are lucky not being sued by the person that you hit!
Sorry you are having a tough time, but things can only get better.
Merry Christmas.

I think that you should write a written apology to your boss,
Stating you're very sorry and how you want to make amends.

Thanks :)
Best of luck hope you get something sorted.

you need to controll ur emotions, maybe this isn't the type of job for you

use this situation to understand what triggered such anger in you. We all have hurt inside us. Use this situation to understand more about yourself. You feel remorse so you are not a bad person but you need to deal with your anger so you can change.

I am afraid you are wrong, you needed to contain your anger in that situation, regardless of what was on your mind.
Get some anger management and look for a less confrontational job.

A lot of people are forgetting that you were at work when this happened, if it was in your personal life, my answer would be different, but you weren't and you lost your job because of it, if you had reacted differently you would still have your job would you not?

if you were sacked for punching a young lad without him hitting out at you then your employers will probably not take you back or give you another chance, not many employers will stand for physical violence, the parents of the young boy could try and sue the shopping centre and maybe that's what your employers are also worried about.

No, you should become a REAL cop- you've obviously got the proper disposition for it!

No you are not a bad person...just someone who used poor judgement. In your line of work, unfortunately, you have to take the good with the bad more so the bad. You have to bite the bullet. If someone curses at you, demeans you or simply gives you the wrong look you must have self control especially in your position. Now if you want to feel better about the situation you can write a letter of apology, address it to the kid, and give it to your ex-boss. But I doubt you will get your job back because now you are a big liability for them. It never hurts to try, though. Also, attending an anger management class never hurt anyone.

Your employer was right to fire you and will not give you your position back. You have anger management issues and are a legal liability to the company.


afcrewchief816
UMMMM..... Well i would feel guilty to but i wouldnt say that you are necissarily a bad person, I can relate with having a bad day and wanting to punch someone in the face.
But i would have to go with how much older you are then the TEENAGER. Older means you should have more restarint and punch a kid gets you nowhere.


Arcanum Noctis
If you feel the pain from empathy, guilt, then you are not a bad person. Are you asking for a second chance as in being rehired? Not happening unless you go to your boss in person and ask then start crying as you ask. Then it might be a possibility. lol

you statement prove's what so many say about this country

look at all the answers . all of them are on the side of being meek mild and soft no matter how someone is wronged or wrongs you

(not that im saying what you did was best)

they all would rather be walked on then stand up for them selves. this is why England is used by the world as a toilet
