What would you do if you were in a compound, shelter, or what not and something like this erupts?

[Sorry about the ad, it's short.]

Would this ever be resolved if those women had to live in close proximity, day after day? What if this is your aunts?

I can't fathom it. :shock:

People I am related to, associate with, and even work with don't act like those folks...but we're not trash, and we're under insane levels of stress. It's different handling things if you gotta be with the same folks day after day after day...month after month.

How do other folks handle things like this?

For some out there, this happens every time someone has to wash dishes. I'm looking for advice from them.

I agree with grim, people we know such as family and friends Wouldn't act like this. Not to say that everyday would be perfect by any means at some point someone will crack I'm sure but it's always smart to remind everyone to remain calm were in this together and fighting with each other will only make things worse. We all need to work as a team and do our part. I'm sure the heat can play on your minds. It was never mentioned what started the fight or anything. For all we know the women could of been fighting over a man who knows. But none the less in a real shtf situation staying calm and trying to keep the peace between others will happen. Even if u have to bite your own tongue to keep things straight.

I don't find myself to be trash, my wife DEFINATELY isn't, but if it's super hot out, and no relief from it, we do tend to get irritable and squable a bit until we stop and say "WTF we fightng about again" and realise that it's the heat making us irritated. Doesn't have to be trash to have enough of something.

BUT, for these 2... Especially chicky in the blue shirt ignoring the fact that her child is right there, and rolling out of the train on to the platform..... Well, that's rediculous. I can see it happening, but that's too far. Not even considering her own kid,.....

But what would I do? Leave the women in that spot and grab my crap and move :D Not worth my time trying to both break it up and understand, because that's what women want, so, I'd just go elsewhere until they can learn to be civil.

Push them into the swimming pool to cool them off. If that doesn't work...Release the sharks !

Sorry, I don't see that as a heat situation. It's insanity, I don't care how hot it is , you don't turn loose of your child on the subway. I guess the way I would deal with it is to protect the child at all cost. let the women fight it out. When they got through fighting I'd let them know in no uncertain terms that this is unacceptable and I have zero tolerance for crap and if they can't keep it together in the heat they need to leave. I can understand being irritable in hot weather but you don't abandon babies because your uncomfortable and anyone that would put a child in harms way will not be in my compound.
