Its really a Cleaning Business Question but anyone could answer it...
What would you do if a client...
*Asked you to walk up a long steep slippery driveway in the snow with heavy equipment
*Forgets to pay at the end of the cleaning
*They are both home and walk over stuff you just cleaned only to ask you why the floor is dirty later
*They let their dog loose in the house when the rule was to crate it while I'm there
*They want me to do above and beyond...like pick up their dirty clothes, even a bloody rag was on the counter and a TURD in the toilet
*Oh, did I mention cleaning up after a mess they left when the wife was going to have a natural childbirth at home - (sweaty blankets....)

What exactly would you write to them in an email(too mad to call) because I have to do that today - I don't care about the money, I have many clients lined up. I just want to sound tactful without sounding like a prick. I do have a referral for a different company(like they even deserve it!)

Everyone look up what the qualifications are to REMAIN a Hitler Youth before you answer. Our pope was in Hitlers Youth until the END of the war. Many Germans have stated they fled or refused to be a part, in which case they were exiled. Our Pope did not resist and remained. Furthermore, he was part of an elite group of radicals. His Uncle was a Nazi elite. His uncles favorite nephew was our current Pope. If you cannot be objective for either side, do not answer. I think the facts will speak for themselves in this case. If you are a true believer, you will NOT try to hide truth. Many would agree that this man accepting the position of Pope, knowing the damage it would do to the catholic faith, shows his interests are self serving. Not a very noble act from a man that is crowned nobility. There is no question that he should ABDICATE his position, however, my question is about the Pope being a Nazi. You should hear what some of the locals think of him, the locals that fled to France.

Bill Donahue of the Catholic League is calling for all Catholics to boycott the new film "The Golden Compass" on the grounds that it promotes athiesm and potrays the Roman Catholic Church as "Evil." Donahue admits to not having seen the film but hates it anyway.

Meanwhile, the Church's Council of American Bishops has given the film a thumbs up, calling it "intelligent and well-crafted."

So, is this guy for real? Or is it another "The Purple Teletubby is gay" thing intended to make the Leaugue appear relevant enough to give money to.

Ok, I'm not asking anyone to do my homework, because I already did it. I translated this passage into German, but I was wondering if anyone fluent in German could just simply tell me if I translated it right. All I need to know is if everything makes sense and is in the right place. I will appreciate any help given. Thank you so much!!! =)

Letzten Sommer bin Ich nach Riccione gefahren. Ich habe im Hotel Apollo gewohnt. Fast jeden Tag habe Ich Tortellini gegessen. Ich bin im Riccione zwei Wochen gebleiben. Am Vormittag habe Ich Volleyball gespielt dann gebadet. Am Nachmittag habe Ich Italienisch mit Giovanna gelernt. Am Abend bin Ich oft in die Eisdiele gegangen. Ich habe viel Spaß gehabt.

One of my co-workers went in the men's room yesterday to take care of his business, and his pants were pulled down to the floor, and his work badge was visible to the man in the next stall.

This guy took a massive dump, no holds barred, and the man next to him started gossiping about it like a kid at recess to the whole office since he was able to identify the man.

I feel bad for the guy .... is it his fault for not being more careful with his badge, or is the other guy an idiot for talking about it?

i believe It is wrong for anyone to close their eyes to what is right in front of them. For a Muslim the evidence of dinosaurs and fossils is not a threat to our beliefs. Rather, it is a confirmation of the power of Allah.

Evolutionists predicted that a 4.5 billion year old moon would have lunar dust 50 feet deep--but when Neil Armstrong stepped down, he stepped on solid ground. Wrong again!!

Is there a tactful way to tell a co-worker that her perfume is positively nauseating? We work in very close quarters and not only does her perfume make me nauseaus, it gives me the worst headache. I've been told by other co-workers that I will hurt her feelings if I tell her it's bothersome, but what about me? I have to suffer through this every single day? I must add that I think I'm overly sensitive to smells anyway (my husband says I have a nose like a bloodhound.....LOL). It does not seem to bother anyone else. Any suggestions?

I know I sound like a bit of a Christmas scrouge, but I would like to avoid exchanging gifts with everyone but my mother, grandma and fiance. These are the only people in my life that really matter to me, and I don't want to spend lots of money on gifts. I also HATE shopping. I'm doing okay finacially, but I feel that it is silly to recieve gifts from friends and extended relatives that don't know me well enough to pick out something other than a gift card. It seems even more silly when I feel obligated to return the favor with another gift card. Essentially, we both just write each other a $50 check, when I exchange gifts with some friends and family memebers. How is throwing money at each other in Chirstmas spirit? How can I hint at not wanting to exchange gifts this season?

OK I asked a question about the Golden Compass..
A lot of responses were very good but I got a few from what I can guess is fundies.. about how they will not support a non Christian movie. Also how that if you are not for god you are against god and they will not give money to that.

Do you folks who think that have any idea how silly you are?
Do you buy gas? Most of the world’s oil (if not all)comes from NON Christian nations. Do you buy goods only at Christian stores?
Do you only wear Christian clothes?
Oh yes there are places you can buy Christian computers.. made in China.

I am a Christian and it is by my good works and my good deeds my faith is shown not buy what things I buy.

Do you really think that you can live in a total Christian world?
Christ said we are in the world but not of it. So the things of this world will not affect us it is what is in our hearts that matters

If atheist are so Gung Ho against Christianity. Why do they celebrate Christmas ?True meaning of Christmas is Christ!! God's gift to us! That is why we celebrate and give gifts to others. Do atheist not celebrate with presents for their KIDS and FAMILY? Do they like stay at home and have a "every other day kinda day " when the Christians that celebrate Chistmas enjoy watching their kids open presents and tell of the Baby Jesus stories? If atheist are so against Christianity...Do they enjoy the christmas breaks at work ? Also Easter, when Christians believe Jesus died and was ressurrected. Do atheist enjoy the Easter (Now known as Spring Break and trying to turn Christmas into Winter Break ..Santa didnt work nor the Easter Bunny So that is why the seasonal change name IMO ) BUT! our holidays really come from the christian belief! Why dont atheist stay at the job working and let only the Christians have these Holidays? Since Atheist do not believe in such holidays ?
