Key problem with your statement is "people seem to".

"People seem to fly into an apoplectic rage" when they're offered advice on how to play their jobs. Like you, I only have anecdote and also like you, I used the weasel word "people" which has the connotation of "lots of people" but is technically correct even if its only two people.
