My company is offering it's employees stock options that we have to option to exercise in a few months. My co-workers were saying that the value of the stock will drop when we can exercise the options because of a lot of people selling the options and getting the cash. I think that the stock will go up because since we dont actually have the stock yet, nothing will be lost when the options are sold...plus some people will choose the option to buy the stock. Who's right???

...for just about anything. I'm not talking just about birthdays and leavings etc, it seems to me at my place that if you walked out of the toilets, arms outstretched in the air, declaring you'd just done a 'mighty panblocker', a collection would instantly whisk its way around the office along with a fitting 2ft card to go with it to be signed by people that you never knew worked there let alone spoke to!
I'm not a meany but working in a fairly large office it seems to me there's one every day. How about you? What do you think?

My fiancee and I booked the location to our wedding months in advance. We have a quote, in writing for the price of food, drinks, dancefloor, etc. The person in charge left the job and now a new, less pleasant person is our contact for the location. She claims the price of drinks and food have gone up since we booked the event, and we have to pay the higher price to have our wedding THIS SATURDAY.
What are our options, if any?

My new husband and I took over a house from a friend of ours.
We are in the process of putting in our name. He bought it in 2005. He didn't pay any taxes on it, so we have to pay them. So we're looking at a total of $6000 back taxes. And we also had to pay 3 months morgatge totaling $4000. I must admit the house is nice, but needs updating and tlc. we also have not so good credit. My friend doesn't want any money or anything to do with the house, he wants to sign it over to us, and we could sell it and keep the money or stay there forever he doesn't care.

For instance, if there's a promotion saying "10% off if you mention our ad" or "15% senior discount". Then when you get the bill, it's X dollars, how can you tell where the discount is? I ask because I questioned one man about the discount he mentioned and he said it was already taken into account when he wrote up the bill.

I was wondering if anyone could tell me in layman's terms what is the value of the US Dollar when compared to other major countires. I have tried using those dollar converters but became even more puzzled. If anyone could share information on how much a single US Dollar would be worth in other major countries, that would be great. Someone said that our dollar would actually double in Mexico yet it would be worth only about 75 cents in Canada. If there is anyway to see the truth in this statment, I would surely appreciate your feedback....thanks one and all!!!

P.S. Can anyone also share with me exactly how much our US Dollar would be worth in major countries such as Great Britain, Japan, Korea, India, South Africa, Venezuela, France, Brazil, Germany, Russia, Argentina, Chile, Egypt and China??? This information alone would be a great help....thanks again!!!

I'm waiting for a call from a company I auditioned for last week, they said it'd be Mon-Thurs which means I've got 2 days left to wait...
What's worse is they said if I didn't get in, they won't ring for another week or so, so I don't even know if it's worth me waiting at all...
They have hundreds of people to call and I may not even be one of them...
How can I take my mind off it?
