Nice observation today, I was late for work and altough I rarely cry, the thought of letting down my boss, who is AWESOME, crushed me.

I was near tears when he walked into his office where I was waiting for him to tell me how much I let him down. But he didn't, he actually told me to take the rest of the day off and that he understood that these things happen, my eye's welled up, but I wasn't embarrased. Then he said, "It's ok, there's no need to cry, and gave me a hug". That's when I nearly lost it, I had to wipe my eyes on my sleeve. I wasn't actually turned on by my own crying untill a few days later when I wasn't mad at myself for being late anymore. The boss has earned my loyality for life for being cool with me crying and being late.

(It's worth mentioning that my boss is a cute guy and I'm a straight girl, but he meant nothing sexual by it, he would have done it for anyone. )
