I don't like being angry and I pretty much try to never get angry.
So...I do give in to anger when I feel it's constructive anger. Getting angry when one of my team mate has personal issues with Earl (girl), and she wants to keep Earl out of the team...that would mean termination. She reported her to the OM and gave some exaggerated statements that could bring Earl down. Given she has an attitude problem, but she's good at some stuffs that we cannot do, and she's devoted to her job. Yeah, that was constructive anger! That got me writing a letter, texting and calling one of our SOM and I even asked the team to get really involved in the whole process and probably learned more from this about "due process" than at any other time in life.
Injustice towards others is what makes me really angry. Maybe it's because those are the only circumstances that really inspire rage, for me, that I feel the injustice so intensely and immediately act. It's never mopey angry, BUT adrenaline angry. And then it's just time to get things done so that's what we do.
