Society & Culture - 22 December 2007

My boss is peevish and irritable, and is rude to me if anything gets on her nerves. She talks to me like I'm sub-human sometimes, and I really don't know how to deal with it. I've been working as a cashier at this place not quite a month, and everyone else seems to get along with her OK . . . so is she singling me about because I remind her of someone in her past? or did I do something to get on her bad side? Today she talked to me like I was a dog in front of other people and I was so embarrased I spent my brake crying about it. I'm just a kid and have never dealt with someone like this before. Have any advice? Is there an acceptable way I can confront her next time? Will it help if I tell someone higher up, or will that increase her dislike of me? Please help.

Does your brain warn you that you're uncomfortable just as your body does?

Should doubt be ignored as an itch often is?

Not very many chimneys around here, so maybe he has to break in through the window to bring the presents. What do you think?

It's most likely impossible. but feedback would be great.
Listing why it is impossible would be great, too.

Would you need to start over with the arrival of human beings? Is there a plan to fix our world how it is now? etc etc.

I hope there's all reasonable answers. If anyone goes Hitler on me, or shows characteristics of extremism is something I am not looking for.

anyways. Thanks for your answers!

And have you ever regifted? If so, what was it? Did the person ever find out it was a regift?

Just FYI, a "regift" is a gift that you receive that you give as a gift to someone else.

Have you put water in the tree today? Trees can go through a gallon of water a day, don't let them dry out and become a fire hazard.

Did you know that holly and mistle toe are poisonous? Careful around pets and children. Also pointsettia plants are a danger.

Do you light candles? Please make sure those are in a safe place and alway extinguised before going to bed.

Let's make this holiday a safer one. : )

How do you set the best example for people to follow you??
The regular traditions I keep are Mass, Confession, prayers..etc...

Do you do something beyond the call of duty as a Catholic to show the meaning of your faith???

God Bless and Merry Christmas to you all!

If I were to get down on my knees and pray to God and slip in a prayer, do you think he'd laugh? Would he find it humorous? If so, what kind of sense of humor do you think he has? Blonde jokes? Poke fun at him and tell him he's gay for creating the platypus? Of course I'd assure him I'm kidding about that.

I suppose he'd already know since he knows all.. Anyway, what about slapstick? What if I was praying with my elbows on the bed and they fell off and sacked me? He's bust a nut for sure wouldnt he? I mean, surely the big guy even needs to laugh from time to time.. Doesn't he?

Remember all that talk about humility? Well, here's your chance to get down on your knees and apologize for letting superstition turn people into monsters. Go ahead, do it.

I was a student whose spending money was quite meager then but I saved enough of it to buy my mother a dark green set of dinner plates,mugs and platters that I saw on a shop window everytime I walked to and from the bus stop.
I didn't realize that it was very heavy. I decided to bring it home for Christmas and took it on the plane with me. It got more and more heavy by the minute as I waited on line. I t would not fit into the overhead cabinets after much help by other passengers so it was very embarrassing as the plane crew tried to help accommodate and decide where my plates would go.

The nice ending was that Mom loved them and so did the rest of my family. But I still get embarrassed when I think about all the fuss it caused.

Here are some of my most answered questions:

1. Is masturbation a sin? (yes! for heaven's sake, stop asking questions to try to justify your guilt!)
2. Am I going to Hell?????!!!!! (...)
3. Christians!!!!!!!!?????? (the answer is usually no.)
4. I had an affair! Abortion, or adoption? (It's called 'responsibility'. You may also want to invest in some 'foresight'. And while you're shopping, don't forget to pick up some 'common sense')
5. I'm (insert age between 11-15). Am I too young to be in love with him? (yes...it's called puppy love and peer pressure)


What are some other R&S classics?

The reason I first stopped talking to him was because he was too touchy feely/phsycial.

Then we met again 2 years later and he has said he has been looking for me since. Again he was too touchy feely.

But he has text me minimally since then. I know I am not a bad person but I have gained 20 lbs since we last saw each other.

WHY IS WEIGHT SUCH A BIG DEAL FOR MEN!

I don't deserve to be treated this way! I am a really considerate person, college educated, own my own house, 24 , what gives?

People use these terms " Happy Holidays" when they have pictures of Christmas ornaments in the background. Can't people and business say what they celebrate to people like for example: Merry Christmas, Happy Kwanzaa, or Happy Hanukkah. I can't stand it when they are so vague in using "happy holidays". What's so offensive back listing specific holidays? Stores have christmas pictures all over the place but they use "happy holidays". I don't see too many hanukkah pictures or too many kwanzaa things drawn. It just make things sound more vague and unclear. If I hear the quote " happy holidays" (when they play Christmas music) or see "happy holidays" (when they have a particular holiday's pictures of TV) I want to just destroy something. We've got to fight this battle guys and try to stop it where its at RIGHT NOW!!! Bye.
