"Professionalism"

Who wrote the rules on "professionalism"? Why does it have to be that an employee can't show emotions other than neutral and happy? Isn't it natural to have a bad day? Isn't it natural to want to cry? And whose fault is it when you leave the room quick enough to hide your tears? God made us fearfully, wonderfully, and uniquely. Some more emotional than others. Yes, there are the annoying drama queens, but by no means should the showing of an emotion be considered weak (let the disagreements begin!) I am an artist existing in this corporate setting. There are bound to differences in outlooks on professionalism when it comes to emotion. There are bound to be disagreements in perceptions of productivity, punctuality, effectiveness, organization, and just the whole concept of "professionalism". ugh. Sometimes my soul screams out from my cubicle for real life to rear its natural head within my bubble of "professionalism". Everyday, my destiny is reaffirmed when I walk into that bubble and for all the annoyance that it causes, me I am thankful for the reassurance. Music is not only the food of love. It is My life. My calling. My First Love. My Best Friend. And it all comes from God who is all that and more...

Whatever...Corporate America.
