Last week, I started a temp-to-hire job for a seemingly great company. I am a new mom with an 8 month old and I wanted a job that was flexible. The job is not as flexible as I was lead to believe and the commute, which I knew would be bad, is actually horrible. (I am in the suburbs and the job is downtown, so I am looking at an hour plus commute usually, when I am use to having a 25 minute commute). I talked to my recruiter on Thursday, saying I need to withdraw, the commute is killing me and she suggested I work part-time if the client is amenable to that--that I should just give it more time to get use to the job. I feel I should withdraw now because as soon as I find a job that is closer, I would take it in a minute. I think it would be fairer to the client to leave now and not invest any more time in training me. I just don't want to look like a quitter to my recruiter. BTW, the job is not bad, I just have been too tired from the commute to really have my heart be in it.

An humans are out of dere mind,

Turkeys like getting presents, dey wanna watch christmas TV,
Turkeys hav brains an turkeys feel pain
In many ways like yu an me.

This guy at work likes me. He's funny and smart, mature (well for 18) and I would be lying if I said I'm not attracted to him. He's made it very clear he'd like to take it past friendship. Still I'm twice his age. I know it wouldn't work out relationship wise, but I'm thinking of just having a physical fling with him. Would I scar him emotionally if I booty called him once or twice?

I find out what people do for a living and try to make *nice* small talk about it.
I start talking about their jobs and ask questions about topics in their job "lingo." Some people get uptight and tell me things like your not a ______ so you wouldn't understand if I told you about it.
Which in fact I just might know a little about the subject to keep the convo a float. Then they get very condescending and uptight at times and start talking down to me. Any idea's to why this happens? Maybe it is because certain people are insecure?!?!?

Yeah, yeah -- obviously not exactly as written; I mean, the son of Mary Jones and John Smith being Michael Jones Smith.

And, would you bother with a middle name thrown in after the first name, or should everybody stop at three?
