Bad-tempered

Bad-tempered
My father is a businessman. He has the bad temper, especially at work. For example, if his worker doesn’t deal with the work well and be forgetful very often, he will get angry. I remembered when I was a child, a customer asked me to tell my father that he had to use his product in the afternoon, I promised him without getting my father’s allowance. After talking to the customer, I called my father, he was very angry when he heard that because he had already arranged his schedule. He told me that I should ask him before making a promise to the customer. I couldn’t forget the day until now, I will keep the lesson in mind and learn to be more careful, but I still want him to be more patient.

"he has a bad temper".

"and is often forgetful, my father will".

"I remember that when".

"without first checking with my father, who had to make the product,".

"I will never forget that day". You don't need to tell us "until now". We know that you haven't forgotten, because you told us this story.

If you're waiting for your father to become more patient, I'm afraid that you will probably wait forever. People with bad tempers usually don't lose them. I know. I have a bad temper. It's caused by using anger to deal with problems. We grow up learning how to deal with problems, and even if the methods we learn as children (usually the methods our parents teach us by example) didn't work well for our parents and don't work for us when we're adults, we tend to hold onto them because they are comfortable habits. We know what responses our bad temper brings but we're not at all sure what kinds of responses other problem-solving methods might yield, and we might be afraid to find out simply because we've never tried them. Typical human behavior.

Good, clear story. But you have too many comma spliced sentences. See if you can find them.
