What was the response when you went to work/college/school/other

I had to go back to work today for the first time since michaels passing and i was dreading it.
I felt sick with nerves before i got there,i work at a care home and there are many staff.

I received a lot of different responses most were sympathetic,but some were just down right mean,one person said to me''whats wrong with you'' so i told her and she told me i should ''get over it and find a new idol'',I said that was not possible! it was really hard not to walk out and go home but i stuck to it,coz i have to.

I just wondered how others fans have coped!?

Sounds like you work with some really nice people,ive only been in my job for 6 months so some staff dont know me very well,but the ones who do really cared!!

i Sms'd some persons! cuz i wanted them to say "didn't you hear? it was a Joke" but unfortionately No one did, Friends sms'd me from old jobs i had 8 years ago! i sent a message to my manager, i told her not to let anyone mention Michael when i arrive at work, or let the TV on Michael's Music *she did and i want to thank her with all my heart, she is such a very good friend* cuz an idiot was gonna make a joke out of it. when i went inside the building! i heard *the way you make me feel* so i ran upstairs to the toilet and locked myself in, i was ahsamed after, my eyes were sooooooo red, i was shy to go downstairs and face my friend. But in all everyone was very supportive to me! i love them... i never had such gr8 friends/workmates. I would like to thank everyone!
