Psychology - October 2007

I was watching tv when suddenly when the phone rang, i left the room to answer the phone. On coming back after 5 minutes I found the tv disconnected. On checking it closely i found out that the plug is stuck between the tv and the table. This cant happen by its own and very near to the room was our maid whom when asked abt it gets angry n denies. She asks me why she would do it. But she should have done it but she is not accepting. Previous experience shows that she tells a lot of lies n denies boldly. She was not seen to unplug the tv, even there was no one else to do so. I dont know y the hell she did it and it was in the morning so there is no chance for ghosts to do it. Neither is there any chance for anyone else to do. Even on coming back, i saw her walking along the coridor near the tv room when as she tells, she was just closing a bathroom door near the tv room. How do i make sure who did it and make her admit the truth?

I can't fall asleep because I dread going to work in a few hours. I hate the environment I work in.

Is it possible that the story in novels is depicted from reality thus giving the life and personality of the characters a touch of reality, even though writers sometimes exaggerate for dramatic purposes?

Is it or is it not in the works? Why or why not? How would your life change if you felt it was in the works? Would it stay the same or would you change somehow?

I stumbled on this site not long ago and for the most part I'm impressed with what this site accomplishes, but I have noticed one HUGE side effect.

Why do people insist on answering questions (almost verbatim) that have already been answered? Do I really need to know 12 times that the X + 2 = 3 so X = 1? Why isn't this SPAM? Do they not notice it has already been answered? I think the reason they answer it is because it makes them, somehow, feel smarter then they actually are? Statistically we konw this isn't true, so stop doing it.

You don't have to look far to see what I'm talking about. And while I'll grant you that sometimes people are responding at the same time, if you notice the time stamps you'll notice this isn't quite true. So, can someone explain this phenomenon to me????

And just to make you feel smart, why don't you answer this riddle.

I was reading King James last night and I am genuinely curious as to what other's think. On a layman's level, I'm not a theology expert, or a shrink. According to the gospel of St. Luke(chapter 4), Jesus was tempted by the devil for forty days, in which time the devil tempted him to throw himself off the pinnacle of the temple in Jerusalem. The devil constantly tempted him, until as Luke relayed Chapter 4-13 "And when the devil had ended all of the temptation, he departed from him for a season."
My uncle, who was a diagnosed schizophrenic ,once smoked a carton of cigarettes with the devil on a bridge. The "voices" attributed to mentally ill people, reflect similarly to the commanding and tempting conversationalists that Christ himself encountered and defied... for a season. The most influential person in history battled the devil himself later to be crucified for (many reasons) , as so many of us now suffer a similar fate as martyrs for the stigma attached to "mental illness".

I didn't know it was wrong at the time, and something just triggered the memory. I only remember what I did, not anything that happened after to that situation.

I have my masters in Health Administration, but I have little experience managing others. A new employee constantly refused to do things. When asked to do something that is part of her job description, she simply responds (with much attitude) "Oh, I don't do that!" The managers have told her that in the past, those duties have been the responsibility of the person with her title. However, when they try to train her, it is like pulling teeth. She has a very condescending attitude towards other employees. She is knowledgable in her field and does her job well.

Alright so I was IM-ing (that's "instant messaging" for you old people hehehehe) my stepbrother and he was talking about his homework assignment for health class. I asked him what the assignment was. Then he says "hold on a sec. i need to help my stepdad". I'm like "k" (that's "okay" for you old people hehehehe).

Anyway he signs off a minute later. And he never returned and it's been two hours.

So tell me what you think happened to him? Be creative, but not dirty. Hehehehehe.

I have. Someone at work was talking about how her relative went to some foreign country and was tortured. Now, that's NOT funny, but I laughed nervously because it was so completely unexpected (it was incidental to what she was saying) and then was horrified by my own reaction immediately. Thankfully she didn't hold it against me. Anyone else?

I have always had teaching as a backup career in mind.
I love kids.
I also have wanted to be a chef, but the stresses of the kitchen environment scare me as compared to cooking at home.
I have people who are wanting me to be a teacher, and those who are wanting me to be a chef.
I am not sure what I want to do.
I don't want to be a chef and work in restaurants, but I don't want to dissappoint those who have faith in me for pursuing this career.
I want to stay close to God.
I want to do mission trips in Latin America.
I want to join the Peace Corps.
I want to have a family, and be there for my children
I want to get things right.

Help me see which desires are stronger than the others.
Enlighten me. Help me to figure this out.

Or "texting", for short.

I just don't understand why people have long conversations through texting when they could say what they wanted to say 10 times faster if they just called the person!

It makes sense if you just want a quick answer to something, but it's almost never used in that way.

What if everyone in your life was exactly the same but could only represent themselves through the bodily image and articulation of someone who is "Black" ? What would be your response to that? Would anything about you or your life perspective change? Would your view of the world remain the same? How would you feel about life?
