Not talking about you poors working at fast food joints or walmarks. Real deal professionals coming to blows.

Only experience I had was seeing a plant operator and IT guy push each other and have to be physically seperated after which the operator picked up and slammed his computer chair on the floor.

I wish. Outside of the plethora of easy women I went to school with, there's nothing I miss more about highschool than watching fights.

Yep. Two Italian guys went blow for blow after a software demo. One of them yelled after to the other as he ran away, "when we get back to Italy I'm going to kill you."

"Professionals" in a fist fight at work? No. The only thing remotely close might be partner disputes. They usually don't lead to blows, though, just loud talk.

Seems like a good way to get fired and black balled from other jobs.

I saw 2 sushi chefs come to blows behind the sushi bar. One dude jumped up and did a legit front kick into the other dude's chest. It was one of the craziest things I've ever witnessed.

No, but I got a former regional vice president in another state that if I ever see him again, he's gonna remember me for the rest of his sorry arse life.

When I was 17 I had an after school job at a machine shop. The very first day, 2 machinists went out back and went at it. One guy broke his hand on the other guy's face and the other guy's toupee went flying about 15 ft. It was a hell of a day.

Fortunately, yes. It got ugly. Where I work, my grandfather at the age of 60-65 asked a 40 YO to put out his cigarette in a no smoker area of our business. The man refused and pushed my grandfather who fell over as soon as my father and uncle were rounding the corner. My uncle, fists up, approached the man and said, "Why don't you take the first shot". The man reared back and punched my uncle in face. My uncle started laughing and proceeded to lay on the punches; he hurt the man really bad. We had to call an ambulance and everything. It was on camera that the man pushed an elderly man to the ground and struck my uncle first. It was a pretty bad scene. It was the first time I had ever witnessed anyone getting knocked out and their head hitting the concrete. He started choking and my uncle rolled him over.

Not at my work and I have been managing pipeline workers for almost 20 years. Imagine that. However last year I was walking into a Lowes here in NE Houston and 2 Lowes employees were going toe to toe in the parking lot by the storage sheds. It was actually impressive because the stand-up lasted almost a full minute before it went to the pavement. Usually street fights go to the ground within 30 seconds. There was actually time for a crowd to gather.

wat

when I think of the term "professional" I think of someone that has specialized. Like a doctor or lawyer or something.

But to answer your question, no. But I've seen some really really heated arguments.

I was going to say yes, but it's only been with the inmates.
