Oh for...
Someone broke into a family's garage and stole more than 400 boxes of Girl Scout cookies here in MN.

It looks like all the good ones, too. Samoas, thin mints and tagalongs.
In the other hand? You steal 400 boxes of GS cookies, someone's going to notice your supply.
Hey, you did great, askye.
That's exactly what you needed to do.
Well done. It's tough facing shit like that.
Well I did cry. Which wasn't the most professional thing to do but at least I got through it.
You did do great, askye. Go you! I hope you have a nice weekend to reflect on it and your next moves. You should definitely pat yourself on the back for facing down the work demons.
Go, you askye! You took responsibility and it's paying off. And your bosses didn't know the crap that had been thrown on you and now they do.
I'm sorry that your first therapist was such a prat, I hate that he planted the seeds of doubt in a really cool person.
Good job, askye. Showing up on the carpet is tough, no matter what. But stepping up like that is always the better option.
{{{Askye}}} You did good. I hope this makes things better for you.
Nora, I am glad the pain is a little better.
Well I did cry. Which wasn't the most professional thing to do but at least I got through it.
As a fellow cryer, including in stressful work situations, I totally empathize. Good for you for TCBing on this!!!
You let your boss know what was going on and asked for help. You did the right thing.
And, I've cried at work. We're human. It happens.
I made a student really mad at me today, but I honestly think she needed the wake up call. She made a glib remark about liking Nazis. I asked her if she knew who the Nazis were. She said yes. I asked her to explain who they were and she wouldn't. I'm not clear if that's because she didn't know (unlikely since our 8th graders took a field trip to the Holocaust Museum in Skokie) or if she was too embarrassed to say. I explained who they were. And she said, I know. Someone else said that she must be joking about liking them. I said I certainly hoped so and that if she really did like them, we needed to have a serious conversation. She then clammed up and pouted all class period.
I know she's 14, but really? Joking about liking Nazis?
