Does a colleague with a difficult temper count as a harmful person?

Look at actual effects on interaction rather than quickly attach that label to bad temper alone. Our discussion includes sustained emotional pressure and obstacles to work or relationships.

Miao Qing described a volatile design colleague who often reacted unpleasantly to assigned work. Although the boss preferred asking Miao Qing, working together remained stressful because she never knew what might provoke anger. She asked whether this counted.

Dao Xuan replied that actual obstacles to work or relationships could be understood as harmful interpersonal energy. Alongside others’ effects, adjust your own communication where needed. If you have done your part and malicious trouble continues, seek assistance.

This does not make every malicious encounter your fault. In work and military service I encountered displeasure I did not understand, sometimes from assignment differences or possible jealousy. Attend to speech and relationships and build goodwill, recognizing we cannot know all motives.

I once attended only one shopping-channel cooperation meeting before hearing negative talk. A mutual friend helped me understand that an existing teacher feared replacement. That experience showed some conflict arises from others’ competition or jealousy rather than our provocation.

Self-review does not mean taking every responsibility. Work properly, avoid spreading falsehood and do not let remarks occupy the heart indefinitely. Some may dislike you without apparent reason. Give effort to aims and supporters rather than continually follow another’s emotions.
