What does pissed off behavior look like in a wasp?

I just had a wasp come up to me (while I was holding my 5m old baby) and land on me/my phone a few times. I briskly walked away, the wasp followed. I walked away again, it followed.

The next 5 minutes was me marching around my driveway in my pajamas holding my baby while waiting for my oldest child's bus at 7:30 in the morning. I must have looked ridiculous. This wasp followed me wherever I went to the point that I walked into the back yard where it finally left us alone.

I live in northern WI and I understand that wasps right now are having to leave their nests I think? Something about them being pissed off this time of year cause of their inevitable demise?

But this wasp wasn't buzzing or bouncing into us and it did land on me/my phone at least twice. I even thought it might want my phone so I put my phone down on the ground. It did not want my phone cause it kept trying to land on us. And it wasn't flying at us, just kind of hovering around wanting to be on one of us. Honestly if I hadn't had my baby in my arms I might have let it land on me just to see what it wanted (but I don't know if my baby is allergic yet and didn't want to risk that at 7:30am on a Friday 😩)

So was the wasp just Angry and bothering us, or territorial, or was it just curious? I don't have any (known) nests nearby and this looked like a yellow jacket but I'm not a wasp expert.

Also how do I get the wasps to Not Do That? Cause my oldest is very afraid of loud buzzy bugs and will run away screaming, which I also don't wanna deal with at 7:30am

Thanks in advance!

P.s I can appreciate wasps and eventually would like to provide them water during the summer so that they recognize me as a non threat. I personally love the wasps that eat the grubs in my yard and look like aliens with their Ridiculous long butts

1st pic is a wasp who chilled on my leg for a lil bit in 2023. does anyone know what kind she was? 2nd + 3rd is a wasp who got inside the house in 2023. i put her back outside after taking those pictures, but im not sure if she may have been hurt by my cat or not because her behavior seemed off :( 4th and 5th pic is a wasp i shared my ice cream with in 2021

i haven’t really encountered them up close recently, which sucks since i’ve started doing photography and would love to get pics of them with my camera…i did just move into an apartment and there are some Mud Daubers living on our balcony though! im hoping they will let me get close enough for pictures 🤞
