This guy at work, I guess, thinks he is exempt from following company rules. Any reports he gets that he doesn't want to do or thinks are too hard he sends back to our manager (which we aren't suppose to do). When hours were cut he was the only one in the my region that didn't volunteer to give up a few hours. Yet everyone else did including myself and I have been at the comapny much longer than this guy. All of us have bills to pay and didn't want to lose any hours either. I also have more responsibility than he does. Now I have found out that he doesn't clock out when he goes to lunch. He leaves his desk and leaves the building for an hour. My asst manager just realized this but has yet to mention it to him. He said he would speak to our manager when he returns to work next week. A supervisor, who is my friend, told me the dude could be terminated for this. Supposedly he hasn't been clocking out for a while. I think this is wrong and my friend said I should take it to HR.

I really don't understand why this man is your president? In the UK most politicians have studied politics and have a fairly good education to start with, but this buffoon [1] I see regularly making a fool of himself while representing the people of America seems never to have clue about anything he is talking about. What are the basic job requirements to be the president of the USA or are they just "talking heads" for other decision makers behind the scenes?

[1] 1. a person who amuses others by tricks, jokes, odd gestures and postures, etc.

PS: I do not claim UK politicians are perfect but they do seem to have at least studied most subjects before commenting on them in public ;-)

I live 20 miles from my job in the country where plow trucks don't some down our road until late-if at all. Apparently, my employers state that unless the center is closed due to bad weather, I should have no reason not to make it. My employers and the other employees live within a few blocks or miles of the center in town. I don't have a 4WD cehicle to get me there is winter weater is bad. On top of that I am two months pregnant and feel that no job is worth risking imjury or death just to get there. Does this seem unfair, and what should I do?

only he'll give his chance to stay a couple of days,he'll find himself pulling his hair off!Some of my neighbors are putting their nose on whatever any house does,and my husband is affected by this situation.as much as we wanted to leave the place,we can't have the decision by ourselves and sell the building all at once without the approval of his Father. Father-in-law says this building brings good luck for you and your brother, so you musn't sell it to anybody.by the way the house is build with three floors including the four empty shops in the groundfloor.The children of some neighbors are so noisy,and scratch with metalsany car who park on the street unless the owner is there.we love any neighbors and we don't like to have a problem with anybody.but things are getting worser.What shall we do?

There are some rumors on the internet that the Central Intelligence Agency planned the assassination of Pakistani opposition leader Benazir Bhutto in efforts to support Pervez Musharraf's dictatorship, a key U.S. ally in Asia. Should Congress create a commission to investigate the CIA involvement in the assassination of Benazir Bhutto?

More people in the world are Muslim than any other religion.

Why don't law abiding Muslims take action against terrorism?

If they are such a peaceful people, why don't they help defeat terrorism?

I am emmigrating to Australia my visa has just been granted along with my girlfriends and two children, i am very sad to be leaving as i love my countries history, i have a nice house, good car and good job. However i feel i have to leave this country as i cannot stay here knowing both my grandads fought in the second world war for our culture to be destroyed by the liberal and multnationalists ivory towerists, they are using political correctness as a way of destroying are culture and taking away our freedom to be proud to be British. The only thing that makes me smile by leaving this country is this though, that the liberals will be more sorry than i ever could be when the muslims take control of this country and they have to behave as the muslims want the to then they will realise that be destroying their own country they have in fact destroyed themselves

I've been raised in the states since i was 3yrs. old but stayed there on a visa up until 7yrs ago. My family was never approved for a green card so we stayed there illegaly, and was told to leave by deportation cops and so we did. I've been in egypt for a year and I would like to go back with my fiance to meet his family and come back because all my family is here. I have nothing in the states. I'm 21 and he's 31.We want to get married but he's not muslim and I am. How can we get married so that it's legal and I can meet his family in the states? Will I be approved even though I had a deportation order? Will the embassy know that I was deported?And what type of documentation do I need to prove that I we're married? By the way he's working here in Egypt on a work visa...Shukran..Alsalam alaykum.

Assuming that I would be selected as a Naval Supply Officer, I was wondering what my housing situation would entail after all training was completed.

As a single male officer (junior), would I be more likely to be forced to live on base or outside of the base?

thank you for your help!
