Crying at work

Crying at work is not advisable, particularly not when you work with engineers and they're not used to dealing with women in work. But that's the position I find myself in today. It's shit. It's worse than shit in fact because I'm crying because of an old fashioned, useless, pathetic excuse for an engineer, who doesn't know one end of a plan from the other. Right now even my boss has noticed, which is saying something, and I'm sat at my desk desperately trying to stop. Unfortunately, it isn't likely to happen soon.

So what do I do? I really want to go home and claim this day never happened but I can't afford the holidays for that. I'm not sick, I'm just really really upset.

 

So, in the mean time, deep breaths, lots of water and away we go.

 

I'll think about how to handle this guy later, I'm not in the right state of mind right now to do so. Ordinarily I'd just go to my boss, but in this case, that's not the best plan since they're of the same generation. So I need to show them my way is better- it's been proven to be better all over the world – but it's not the way this man understands and so therefore it's not valid.

 

Deep breaths, lots of water and plenty of trips to the bathroom.
