    so he picked a fight one day but I kept it professional and walked away. He is almost twice my age, I would have busted his nose and probably lose my job!
    That's extreme. I've never met anyone on any of my teams who picked a fist fight.

    That's what I thought as well but don't you believe in second chance and that people can change?
    Absolutely! But your question was, should you endorse him? I wouldn't. If he changed for the better, then leave it to his more recent co-workers speak favorably of him. Leave it to his hiring manager to decide if a few years of good references is enough.

A few years ago, there was this employee who disliked me because of my talent and what I was paid (he knew the accountant) so he picked a fight one day but I kept it professional and walked away. He is almost twice my age, I would have busted his nose and probably lose my job!

    After 2 years or so, he sent me a request on LinkedIn. I hesitated for a few days but ended up accepting his request. We don't talk but I think he knows what he did was wrong. I sometimes forgive others for their ignorance, hope it doesn't bite me in the rear.


    Are people really getting into fist fights at work?
    When you go the extra mile, there's no traffic.

    If someone dares to step on my sneakers, it's on.

    Them comments made me laugh. I hope your kidding about someone stepping on your sneakers. I usually don't argue with coworkers let alone get into a fight but if someone was to hurt me, I'll make sure I'm not the one that's on the ground.
