You might want to look at what, specifically, makes you angry. In my case, my work doesn't affect me outside of work because I put clear boundaries. If I'm supposed to be in the office from 9am to 6pm, I'll be there, but at 6pm I leave, whether there's something important going on or not. Doing that systematically means that people don't expect you to be around and won't come with more work at 5:55pm. At home, I don't check my work emails and don't take work-related calls (there's a few exceptions, and it's usually agreed in advance with the company so that it doesn't become a habit).

All this helps me "recover" from a day of work and to feel good at home, knowing that I won't be suddenly interrupted for work reasons.

Again, it might depend on your specific case. If a work was making me angry I would simply quit, but maybe it's not an option for you.
