Everyone has a breaking point. Even the calmest and most level-headed people will reach that moment when enough is enough, and they just can't take it anymore. These stories are examples of those moments that people witnessed, as shared on this trending r/askreddit thread.

There are a lot of responses about otherwise even-tempered teachers and mentors in this thread that snapped. Just a trend I noticed that shows how much torture we collectively put these people through.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/askreddit subreddit by Reddit user u/Specktakles88, who posed the question "Have you ever seen a normally calm person completely lose their sh*t? What happened?" to the popular sub.

Redditors responded in force with a whole load of brilliant stories and responses to this question, and these are some of the best ones.

"Quit the job on the spot," shared user 'the man with none' in one of the briefer responses. "He went out of the office showing the finger to everyone and telling us to go f ourselves. Nice dude! I miss him!"

It was an absolute pleasure reading through these, even just to put this together, so grab a cup of coffee (or beverage of choice) and get ready for a solid read.
