Do you wear your emotions on your sleeve?

I hate that I do. I just can't help it but if I am p!ssed off I can't hide it.

 We haver a new "chef" (by title of the position only not by credential) and so far, not so good. I can't help but feel uncomfortable around him and it shows. He asks too many questions (personal and otherwise) and is just a strange overall presence. ::sigh:: anyone else have trouble concealing their feelings? How do I put on a face and get through my day?

 

Re: Do you wear your emotions on your sleeve?

  • I can't hide it either!  I am irritated with someone right now and I just passed them....I couldn't act like everything was fine.  Do you d@mn job and STOP passing it off on me!
  • I think I mostly do.  This might sound bad, but usually I can fake nice so as to not have a problem with a CW or mutual friend.  However, I have real issues with one of Daniel's CWs.  I cannot for my life hide my dissatisfaction with 99% of what he says or does.  Drives. me. crazy.  I mostly try to hide or ignore him, but that's probably not an option for you.

    As for getting through the day, I'm not sure what to tell you other than try to suck it up. ;)  Sorry, girl.

  • i totally do.  my boss has told me that I say "F__ you" to him with my eyes all the time. 

    TJ says i have the worst poker face. 

    good luck with that!  when you find out how to put the happy face on, let me know!  :)

  • I always wear my emotions. It is so easy to tell when I am happy annoyed, sad, you name it, I get myself into trouble because I don't say mean things but give mean faces. If you figure out not to do this i would love a solution, lol
  • I like to think that I'm good at hiding my emotions, especially with my facial expressions, but I don't think I do. I also think that people misinterpret my expressions too. I've gotten into a lot of trouble because I may something with sarcasm, but look serious and people think I'm being pissy or am mad. My close friends know when I'm joking around, but honestly, I think that's why I lost my job. My supervisor didn't get that I was kidding around whenI would say something and it didn't dawn on me that he thought I was being serious and insubordinate. Oh well.

    DH can always tell when I have something on my mind too and will point it out.

  • I can not hide my emotions at all. Whatever I am thinking shows all over my face!

    I agree!!!!!

  • HA!

    If I could hide it better I wouldn't be in the situation with my inlaws.  So yes.  I also say fcku you with my face.  I just buy bigger sunglasses and wear them more.

  • I do and I hate it too.
  • I am the same way.  Gets me in trouble a lot and people most offten think i am a b!tch because of it.  I wish i could hide my feelings and paint on a smile but it is just not who i am and i have accepted it.  I try really hard to make sure i am aware of what i am doing when i am around people that easily annoy me.  
  • Yeah I totally do. All of them. Especially anger. And especially when I'm angry at stupid people. I work with a lot of stupid people. But people at work think I'm "stern and don't allow for f-ing around" and also that I'm "kind of bossy" they don't get that I think they're retarded lol
  • I can't hide how I'm feeling.  And my sister got fired (as a waitress) for showing what she was thinking about her boss one day...

    Uhm, Why haven't I ever crossed y'all in the halls? Seriously?

    I missed a meeting Friday, and were told we can no longer be on Facebook during the day.  Uh one Facebook is blocked here at work. Two - If I'm on the crapper and choose to Tweet damn right I am.

    I know people totally talk about me ha ha and I don't care.  I even told one of the girls I work with (we're cool) I know y'all talk about me, so.what do y'all say ha ha
