Etiquette - September 2006

Are women envious of the way other women look? Or do they judge you before you even open your mouth? Just because someone is attractive, it doesn't mean they are a complete biotch.
My husband and I went out of town this weekend, and the girl at the front counter was such a rude biotch, I asked to speak to a manager, but she claimed she was the night supervisor. I am filing a complaint today. A hotel with such a good reputation should revaluate their employees every now and then! UGH.

Last year my 17yo cousin brought his new girlfriend to my grandmother's house for our family Christmas party. He had said he "might" bring her. My grandmother was very upset because she did not have a gift for the girl. The girl sat there with nothing to unwrap as we all enjoyed opening our gifts.
I was just wondering, as cousins are getting older & getting into "serious" relationships, if this happens again is a party hostess obligated to give a gift to someone they've never met, who may or may not show up for their party?

i work at a gas station and the people that do drive offs make me so mad, we had 5 of them sunday. and then the managment gets mad and thinks that were not doing our jobs and watching people close enough. its kinda hard to watch everyone when youve got 10 or 12 people pumping gas and a line of customers buying other items, and then when you call the police to report it the first they they say is did you get a license number, i dont know about anyone else but i cant read a license plate number from 100 foot away as a car is driving off. well we just caught a guy lastnight and finally got his licence number, it was the 3rd time this month he has drove off on us so the clerk recognized the car and made sure he got close enough to get it. but they wont even charge or prosecute for that, they are just gonna go pick him up and make him pay for the gas he stole and then let him go. that is B.S. if he came in the store and shoplifted they will arrest you. but they wont for gas. its still theft

There are so many absolutely retarded questions here in which a simple search on google asking exactly what the question is would return the link that the person ends up going to. People this site is not a manual search engine! It's ok to ask legitimate questions, but some stuff......good lord! What percent of people here do you think actually do any research whatsoever before asking their question here?

If so...were you outside when you did, did any get on your shoes/boots (or did you accidently step in it), and did anyone see it?

behavior that at least appears to be unethical; maybe these people are nanobot robots (supposedly still at the theoretical stage)? It makes sense that if some group of people were first smart enough to become very wealthy, that they would then attempt to hide who they were. For example, watches that are worth very little but have large pricetags . .could be a way of making it seem like these people are passing money back and forth between them . . .

I have a hard time believing that this is actually going on. Holographic illusion, maybe?

There's this guy at work who has thee worst breath I have ever smelled..and he has always had it. You can smell it down the hall..what's worse, is that you know he's been there, before you get around the corner..and you don't want to know what it's like getting into the same elevator as him....He works in a different department than I do but, No one seems to want to tell him, not even his supervisor....(yet people talk about it behind closed doors)...other than bluntly telling him..how can we make him take the hint?

like tonight I was standing in line for a concert and somebody came up to me and gave me some free tickets because he changed his mind about going to it ... should I have given him some money for them, or would that have been an insult?

im talking about our genitals, w/c we often terms as delicates or private human body parts. if it is called 'private', then why we can see girls and even men displaying thier own private parts all over, on media prints, internet, and even on some live adult shows? it only gets me curious, to even think about it, what do yah think!!! :)

I was once conned out of 60$ by one. Stupid me. Since then, I always say: "Sorry, I already gave at the office".

P.S.: I am talking about aggressive panhandling here. "Homeless" is not more politically correct. It is plainly inaccurate. Bums are not necessarily homeless. One bum that I see all the time is literally living next door. He is not homeless by any means, but still a bum.

Everyday I see the same bums standing on street corners, hassling myself and others for $$$. Each day they come up with a new story as to why they need cash. I would like to help those who have sincere needs, but have no interest in those that lie or just waste the generosity of others (often the elderly). Whats a good way to tell these repetitive bums to "hit the road"? Anyone have good techniques?

I'am a waitress. Saturday night a girl came in to pick up her to-go order and she was VERY rude to me. She kept rolling her eyes, blowing, and even had the gaul to say that my attitude was a problem. It was my idea to call her back after she placed her order to tell her that we do not have ham for a ham salad. When we(the cook and I)were not able to get up with her on the phone I appologized to her(when she came in) about being out of ham and asked if she would like something else. She complained about what we had and that she didn't like it. I was helpful to her when she asked the prices of items and the sizes that the items would come in. The longer that she was there the worse she acted. While I was waiting on another customer she just wanted to know the number that called her(it was mine and the way that she was acting I wasn't about to give it to her). I want to know how to handle somone like this without loosing my job or causing a seen in front of other customers.
