According to the client, this problem started about two years ago. Ever since he started
working, he was facing some kind of problem. The client stated that he had done B.com. Before

financial condition of the house was not very good and he was also the eldest son in the house.
Due to which he often got to hear things. He said that he used to spend most of his time
outside with his friends. Whenever he came home, he was often angry. This attitude of his
became a part of his personality. Then a year ago, I got a job as a supervisor in a factory. But
she could not last long. Because he was a man with an angry personality. Talking angrily to
everyone or often did his own thing at work. Due to all these reasons, he was fired from that
job.
