I think I am going to cry a ton, and then I will cover it up by saying that I am just sick.
What is your reason for having been crying so much.
I thought about asking for a salary raise but he made it clear on the phone that he didn't want to give me one.
There is no need to lie about crying. I bet it is frustrating not getting your raise. There is no shame in being upset about it.
I know, you don't have to tell me. But being sad can,t help me. I will cover all my sadness by complaining and blaming him for it.
There is no reason to feel bad about the amount of time you are crying. Crying is a great way to allow your hurt to escape your body, so if you do not cry you are really just keeping it all inside.
