I have the same problem where I work. If someone messes up it starts a long game of passive aggressiveness. I'd much rather people come right out and tell me I'm causing an issue. In this way I can change course or work on convincing the other party this is what needs to change.

I agree. But there's a difference between being straight-to-the-point versus "shouting" at people. You can be direct without being mean or belittling about it.
