If you happen to be Oprah then professionally you’re set for life no matter what crazy shit you pull. But can the rest of us get away with crying at work?
I’m not just talking about woman either. Sometimes dudes need a good cry!
The conventional wisdom on this is no. No you may not cry, nor may you well up, nor besmirch your colleagues shoulders with your shameful shameful tears.
However, I think its time for a change! I think its time to accept ‘feminine’ attributes, like vulnerability (and weeping and wailing). I think we should agree to come out about our office waterworks!
Hi, my name is Vivalaslut, and I’m a workplace crier.
In the future, instead of saying “Oh, I just have something in my eye” I’m going to say “Obviously I feel strongly about this.” I’m going to acknowledge the fact that I’m a human being!
What does everybody think, am I committing professional suicide here?
Don’t be ashamed, my weepy cohorts! Let it out, its healthy!
VIVA LA TEARS!
