I try really hard to conceal my tears at work out of fear it will add fuel to a fire. I want to know your experiences!

Have you you ever cried infront of people (men) at your workplace?

What was the reaction?

Do you think it helped people take you more seriously, or did it backfire?

How did people treat you afterwards? Did it become awkward at all?

Have you ever been accused of crying for personal gain?

I'm exhausted. I don't have a voice and disrespect is the norm. I love my job. I love the work that I do. I don't think I can do it anymore.
