Hi, Twhfan!
I've read everyone's responses, so far. What caught my attention is that this person cries easily and often about anything and everything. Heck, I don't know this person, but to me it seems like a personality thing -- perhaps even a chemical imbalance thing -- emotional control issue. Is she on some sort of medication that perhaps makes her emotional? Perhaps she needs to be on some medication to calm her emotions? Although she's healthy (physically), and happy with her personal life, I hope that she visits a doctor to get an evaluation and diagnosis on her emotional control issues.
Losing credibility or not, it's true that most people that know her because they work with her every day will just get used to her actions... "yeah...that's just how Susie is..." but it does make one feel uncomfortable when someone else cries in front of them.
Every once in a while I get upset and need to vent at work - I have one person that I can trust and I go to when I need to let loose on the waterworks, but I try very hard not to cry in front of just anybody at work.
