I am really confused with wether my boss is flirting with me or just being friendly:
He winks at me
He walks past me, looks me in the eye and then smiles
I passed him a recept the other day and he practically took my hand with it (Slid his hand down my hand)as he looked me in the eye and said "Thanks Skyla"
Walked past me the other day and quickly dragged hus hand across my shoulder
Another co-worker who my boss has been friends with for a long time said my boss told her he cares alot about me
Asked me to come up to his office and had a huge chat with me about random things like if i use protection, what would i do if i got pregnant, What i do in my spare time, Would i like more responsibilites with my job? is everythign alright?
Said when they sell the buisness one day that they are taking me with them
Always commenting me, saying im a bloody good worker.
Whne i went on holiday, he told me to be naughty but be carefull.

Sooo is he flirting??

I have a gas built in double oven and hob.

The electric ignition (to the lower oven) and clock/timer seem to have ceased working.

The ignition is still working in the grill and hob.

Who can I call out to fix this problem? Would a electrian deal with a gas appliance? Or is there specialist people who deal with electic bits on gas appliances?

Please help I desperately need this fixing.

I purchased a new home and the pipes in the bathrooms and kitchen seem to be excessive. I mean, it just appears that there is too much pipes under the sink areas. Like maybe who ever installed them, didn't know exactly what they were doing. My water works fine in all the rooms, but there's just not much room in any of my cabinets becaue of so many pipes!

I am renting a house in Valencia, California (Los Angeles County.) Our bathroom came with nasty carpet. I consider it unhygienic and ugly. I am considering paying for a new floor, even though I know the bathroom is technically not "mine."

I would like simple tile, one or two inch size, that is basic but durable. Will this cost me an arm and a leg to purchase and install? My bathroom is only 21.75 square feet.

Hi I am going to install a pedestal sink in my bathroom, however, aside from the screws that anchor the sink to the wall, is there any other sealant/caulk/glue I should buy that will ensure that the sink adheres properly to the wall so that it is firm and rigid (so it doesn't wobble while turning on the faucet etc)?

I need to drill a hole through a steel socket for something. The socket is a HUSKY which Im also guessing is steel. Right now Ive been trying to drill with a titanium drill bit but its taking way too long. What can I use to drill it? Would a tap drill bit work better?

I tried to grow some catnip but so far nothing is sprouting up after 12 days. I dug into one of the plastic pods and found none of the seeds in the soil have sprouted. I have given them plenty of water and I have used regular potting soil mix.

I want to try again. Am I using the wrong soil? Any advice is appreciated----my 2 cool cats will appreciate it too. The catnip is for them.

if you called him to your house to clear a drain, and he couldn't do the job? He spent 1-1/2 hours here, went through every available cleanout, and couldn't do the job. He refused to go through the vent on the roof, which was the most direct route into the main line, "for insurance reasons". He collected a $200 check from my wife while I was at work, for his time. I'd be interested to hear some opinions on this.

I have romex cable running up the corner of my bedroom into the attic in order to supply power to the attic.

I was not able to put the romex behind the walls becasuse there is brick insulation directly behind the sheetrock.

Other thancutting the sheetrock, burying it, and spackeling - is there a way to sasfely cover the romex on top of the wall?

Hi, i recently woken up and have been confronted with at least 15 wasps all buzzing around in my hallway, i have killed the little buggers, but it got me wondering if i might have a nest somewhere in my house, there was a window open which they could have come through but it was and still is dark where i am, and i doubt 15 or so wasps could navigate through the window. So is it pluasable i have a nest in my house!?

I don't understand why you'd use a nut that transitions upwards in diameter from that of the tube... why not use a normal nut?
