She did it. She broke down with tears in her eyes. And guess what? She became softer and the polls went up. So if crying is a plus for Hillary Clinton, is it going to be acceptable in your office?

"The business of politics is not the business of business. It's not a career killer if it's an occasional thing," Linda Haneborg, VP or Public Relations at Express Personnel, told Ivanhoe.

"If someone is crying on a regular basis and it's interfering with the work, then clearly that's a problem that needs to be addressed," Darcie Harris, president of EWF International said.

It may have been a boost for Hillary, but clearly the tears need to be shed with caution … no matter where you work. Every workplace is different, but our experts say being disrespectful of your employer's time is a definite workplace sin.

"A lack of loyalty is going to be a career killer," said Harris.

Time wasted on the Internet and phone at work will always set you back career wise.

"Work is work. It is extremely important to never take advantage of your employer in any way," Haneborg said.

Experts say dress for the job you want to get, which probably doesn't include a Jessica Rabbit wardrobe.

And as for gossip, "Gossip in the workplace is an absolute no-no," said Haneborg.

Common sense seems to be the key word. From gossip to crying, our experts agree, if in doubt, ask!
