THE HIGH COST OF CRYING AT WORK
(Women's Health)
You get... Kleenex, Visine, and makeup remover Because... You'll need these products to mop up the water show you just put on. You pay... $15
You get... No promotion Because... If stress caused your tears, the boss may not think you can handle more responsibility. Forget the 10 percent raise. You pay... $6,716
You get... A trip to the cardiologist Because... Built-up emotional stress can result in higher blood pressure and cholesterol, which ups your risk of heart disease. You pay... $60
You get... Cell phone bill Because... Minutes of sobbing to your boyfriend, mother, and best friend from the parking lot will add up. Darn those peak hours. You pay... $100
You get... i-Tunes Because... Just in case another crying bout strikes, you'll need something to muffle the sobs coming from your office. You pay... $50
You get... Cardio Kickboxing Class Because... Punching and kicking will help you take out your frustrations and put you back in control. You pay... $18
You get... One-year gold membership to vault.com Because... After losing out on a big promotion, the best job advice may be to get a new one. You pay... $72
TOTAL: $7,031
