Denying your real feelings from the very beginning of a job is not a good recipe for an authentically fulfilling relationship in the job. I am pursuing a job I truly enjoy and am excited about. But if at the moment I legitimately am upset about a situation I am not going to pretend to feel otherwise, especially not on an anonymous website. This isn't a job interview, and I am allowed to have a few weeks to recuperate, to be angry, and to grieve like people are allowed after their loved ones die. I don't have to immediately be cheery and upbeat and in denial about what just happened to me.
