“Abel, put that camera down right now!” Armstrong screamed on the call. “Abel, you’re fired. Out!”

You can listen to the actual clip here (I wouldn't say he screamed at him, but it was forceful):

That was definitely not a scream. Maybe it felt like it, but it wasn't.

Scream or not, it's still not a defensible way to behave.

True. But based on the situation and the accounts of his behavior, clearly the manager was under a lot of stress.

And nothing says leadership like cracking under stress.

[code_duck]

Yeah, I feel sympathetic for the guy but I wouldn't want to hire him.

[DubiousPusher]

That's downright decent. Don't necessarily condone but always seek to understand. I'm picking up what you're putting down.
