An example would be someone working in customer relations, who must keep calm and be pleasant even when dealing with someone who is irate.

The purpose of this volume is to allow an opportunity for those in alt-ac careers to examine and share their affective experiences in their roles in technology, administration, research, and academic support services and as librarians, academic advisors, and writing center instructors-among others"-- Provided by publisher.
