Communication Styles?

Silly me, I thought earning a Bachelors Degree in Communication and Public Speaking would have an easier time "communicating" with people.

Today, I proved to myself TWICE that I should have paid more attention in college...

One, studying communication styles with my husband to learn how to get our points across better.
Two, lashing out at my entire work team via email.  Woops.  I believe my boss started a team meeting (that I chose not to attend) by asking "Who likes it when Amanda is mad?"  No one liked it.  Shocking.
