Anger is a huge trigger

I'm on day 6 sober and most of the withdraw is over. Today I had a job interview and needed to print some paperwork to take with me. My fiance was on the computer before me and was changing the ink cartridge and somehow managed to break the cartridge holder. I didn't have enough time to go anywhere else to print out what I needed so I went to my interview feeling like an ******* for not having what I needed. I was so mad at her and it just compounded the stress that already was there from the interview and recently quitting drinking. I was sooooo close to stopping and getting a bottle but thankfully I didnt. In any case it was terrifying that I got so worked up over it and almost drank again. Lesson learned that anger is a huge if not the biggest trigger for me. Anyone else have issues with anger being a huge trigger? How to you manage the anger?
