Have you ever cried at work?

I'm almost ashamed to say but I at age 34 cried at work today because I was verbally abused hard by a customer all because we quit carrying what he wanted. I offered something similar but nope he decided to just unload on me calling me worthless and a piece of sh*t and all sorts of choice names. There's been trouble with this particular guy before running scams for returns and whatnot in the past so I recognized his face but I've never really had to deal with him myself until today and man I'm not going to lie I almost walked out. There were other customers around but not a single person did anything. I don't expect anyone to defend me but I hoped at least one person would tell him to shut up. I've been dealing with a ton of crap lately as is so I really didn't need that. I did not wake up this morning to come to work to be treated like an actual punching bag.

Yes many times, when I was young I was bullied and now I cry with joy at work.
I’m lucky I have such a beautiful job that makes me emotional from a great place.

@Achelois What do you do for a living if you don't mind me asking?
The one and only time I cried in the office, was when I got the word that one of my colleagues, who was also a personal friend of many years, had committed suicide. A mutual friend took me aside and told me. I was crying in his arms. 😞

@bijouxbroussard I don't blame you for crying that is awful news that nobody should ever have to either break to someone or to recieve.
Yes and felt terrible. Felt awful and couldn't stop.

@Pretzel I'm not sure what the outcome was but I do know my manager filed an incident report.
