Have you been mad at your boss or a colleague?  Most likely you have.  Here are some good tips published by TheWeek.com on how to keep your composure and avoid anger at work

Be aware. Anger is relatively easy to recognize in
others, but many people can’t sense their own heated emotions. If that
sounds all too familiar, the first step is to “notice and admit that
you are angry.” Then figure out what made you upset and try to “choose
a different approach” than rage.

Delay your reaction.
Stave off anger as long as possible by shutting out “the internal
chatter of blame on yourself or the other person” in the conflict. Take
time out for a brisk walk outside the office. You are likely to act
more rationally when you return.

Find strength in composure.
It’s a myth that only a weak person doesn’t fight back. In fact,
“letting anger hook and jerk you around” is not only a true sign of
weakness, but also shows a real lack of self-control. Colleagues will
respect someone who can stay cool when it counts.
