Her main goal was to get her squats in, and by chance someone was using the equipment for something he didn’t need it for. While curling in the squat rack is definitely bad gym etiquette, the Stoics would caution that anger isn’t useful in this situation. How can we maintain our composure when coping with the frustrations we encounter while going about our day?
