Question

A freind of my sons who was 19 was hit by a car while riding his motorcycle and he was on life support,my son who was 17 than,called my job sobbing that Alvin had died,I sobbed along with my son,most people were sweet but actually this one girl asked me to shut up and be professional.

Answer 1

I work with all women so we have seen many a tear shed. life happens even at work and that chick sound like an insensitive b*tch. my coworkers are all supportive. I'm sorry for your loss.

Answer 2

yes, my last job was so exhausting (start at 7am every morning, finish at around 3am so I lived on less than 3 hours sleep per night for a year and a half) and everyone was so shattered, it was very stressful and no matter what we did it was one of those jobs where we were always wrong, even if we followed all instructions to the letter. I cried because I was so tired and I wanted to go home at half 3 in the morning, I asked one of the bosses to please let me go home, but they would not, that night I did not get any sleep at all and still had to go back to work at 7am the next day. The staff were all sympathetic as we were all in the same boat there, and everyone cried at some point!

Answer 3

Considering the circumstances, I'm sure that everyone understood. If you aren't prone to emotional outbreaks then I think the girl who told you to shut up was probably jealous of the attention and support you were getting from coworkers. I've cried at work, put in private.

Answer 4

Cry,
The world goes around and that co-worker is going to be left all alone. My brother just died of cancer, 46, and i am a barber and I cried at a brand new job as a barber. The world revolves on emotions, be human,cry my friend.
