Yep. I cried at work yesterday. I got in over my head. Emails left and right, calls from people in departments, people trying to hold me accountable for my job. I thought they knew I was toopid. So I went to my boss (calmly) and before I knew it I was "The Cry Girl" in the office.(Who'da thunk it?) He told me to grow a thicker skin.

Is that because you break just like a little girl?

I cried at work once when I first started here. Then I learned the words "Yeah, I don't think I can do that in that amount of time, I'm really busy", jumped back on GAB and haven't looked back. It's all about priorities.

Yeah, if only strangers from an internet comedy board had told you that before, maybe you wouldn't have cried.

I cried at work once - but it wasn't because I was sad or upset. It's because I was so pissed off, I was tearing up when trying to hold back my instinct to through someone through our IV room window.
Instead, I grabbed a liter bottle of IV solution and threw it on the floor. Sure, I got written up, and sure, I had to clean up broken glass that was buried in the soft tiles, but I never had to worry about that stupid Froster challenging my authority again.
I really do think I should be medicated sometimes.

I once was so upset about having a horrible lunch encounter that I cried the moemnt I got back to my office. When someone asked what was wrong, I could only get out a few unintelligible words and two happened to be potato chips.
I will never be able to live down the day potato chips made me cry.

The only time I cried at the office was when my mom called me and told me my grandmother was steadily growing worse after a stroke. I have never cried due to workload, Emerson co-workers, or ridiculous state policies.
I usually wait until lunchtime and go to the local post office to threaten people with my red stapler!!

The only times I've cried at work have been due to frustration and anger. I think a lot of women cry when they get angry, especially when yelling isn't an option.
I'm happy to say now I express my anger without crying or yelling. I haven't been able to do it without using foul language, though. That's my next hurdle.
Jilly, you have to learn that when people are Emersons to you to be a bitch back and not let them bother you.

We're there photos taken of your crying?
So that I can start my plan of one day making you cry the sweet, sweet tears of hopelessness as you're eating your parents remains in a bowl of chili and I can lick your face and say, "Oh, your tears, Jill, they taste so sweet! Mmmm...give me more - MORE TEARS!!"
Cause you know. Pictures would really help with that.

I have lost faith in GAB. THe correct response is:
If you don't want to cry at work, stop posting and actually work. That way you won't feel overwhelmed.

The closest I came to crying at work was when I got fired from a despotic, nepotistic, fascist construction company. A family member had been hired to replace me and I really liked the people I worked with, except the woman whose husband founded the business (she's the one that let me go).
I walked into the office Monday morning and all my Shakespeare was boxed up. The kicker was the last paycheck they gave- the woman handed it too me and said with a straight face, "It's not much, but we'll write off the rest of the advance (~$500.00-750.00) you owe." After I got into my car and opened it, it was for one mother-Frosting dollar.
I shed a few tears as I pulled out of the parking lot, bought a pack of smokes, then sucked it up and played the XBOX for the next 3 weeks as bills mounted up and I awaited placement from a temp agency.
