So you sat there at your desk sniffling and looking sorry for yourself instead of gritting your teeth and getting on with things - very grown up!

Yes i guess i did sit there. sniffling and looking sorry for myself for a short while whilst I tried to pull myself together. Unfortunately I could not control how upset I was, it was not a matter of being grown up or not so i chose to leave. Thanks for your opinions, I am not perfect in acting like nothing had happened and didnt manage to grit my teeth and get on with things, but it doesnt mean i didn't try.

How cruel a thing to say. Maybe you've never been in the same position as the OP. I've worked in a company where some people were bullies, and know how hard it is, and I have every sympathy for the OP. There will probably have been far more bullying going on than they've written here.

I know how hard it is, trying to hold the tears in with bullies at work, even when being abused in front of customers. Good luck in getting sorted with a new job hope it all works out well for you
